pirellis arent bad (for a name brand) but they have a tendency to understeer and wear very quickly.

we are assuming you are talking about p-zero's here, since you listed such an exorbitant price tag

Couldn't tell you. Once i saw the price i basically got the fk outta there.. I'd rather spend the cash on a suspension set up, which will last a lot longer than a set of tyres for approximately the same price

if you guys want 17" rims and tyres give me a call.

also springs can do really great deals on those too.

"to AZZA we can do other tyres for you rather than pirelli's"

Photn, Oxyg3n, what size of nuts are you using on them?

I just picked up mine from Power Ford and they came with these nuts and i'm wondering if they'd fit Fiestas.

there special ones. there the ones that come with the RIMS. the normal ones from the Fez wont Fit...plus the 17" ones are CROME baby...

so basically the nuts you got are the ones that we both have on. and YES they fit....

btw there worth $20 PER NUT!!!

$20 thats stupid, go to any tyre shop and ask for some 12x1.5mm 60 degree taper nuts, the same as commodore nuts, chrome ones should set you back $2-$3 each.

Interesting I just still have the normal fez nuts on. The ones that come with the rims are still wraped up cos I forgot to tell the tyre place I had them lol.

the dealer told me that the normal ones dont sit righ or sumthing rather...i didnt really car or take much notice after he said they where crome. so i could be wrong. but it would make sense that you should use the nuts that came with the rim, apart from the fact that they look more suited to the wheel, and look better than the originals.

and yes scarey i agree its stupid. and i aint gonna pay 20 for a new nut..i just need lock nuts now....dont forget Ivan you need Lock Nutz...

The standard nuts have a different taper on them, they work but they tend to dig in to the alloy.
