Re: what tyre size?

I believe that you want 215/45's for the 17" alloys...

That's what I'm running on my Razors which should be the same as the Claws.



As for the make, it's a personal preference but apparantly the Pirelli P7000's are good...

Re: what tyre size?

I replaced the standard Dunlop SP Sport Maxxs with a set of Falken FK452's. I was tempted to go a bit wider and opt for the 225/40/17 but i wasnt sure it would fit so i stuck with the original size of 215/45/17.

My wheels are the twin 5 spoke (fan/blade) alloys though.

Ha ha... it's what people call them as well as "Blades" but I don't think that Fiat officially named them though... it seems quite fitting though

Thats a fine looking Stilo you have there! I wasn't so sure about a white stilo but that looks well smart with the claws too!

Same here, though I currently have 205/45's on the front, saving up to replace those with 215's!

Re: what tyre size?

I have 215/45/17 Goodyear Eagle F1 GSD3's on my claws, they look great and are very soft and sticky.... probably why they only last about 8000 miles
