Looks damn good to me at less than 200 quid.

Ive got some with Yokohama tyres im trying to sell for £450 open to offers, tyres cost around £400 quid alone and there brand NEW!

These tyres are always up on eBay from that guy - they are main dealers in Bedford [not far from me ]

I have decided not to buy claws for mine, and wait for some multispoke 17s, with or without tyres. No major rush in any case.

I have a bit of a request here! I have 16s on my Stilo and want some 17's (the 5 spokes) but after seeing this thread on the claws I may just buy them but I havent a clue what they look like could anyone please PLEASE post a few pics of the claws on a 3 Door silver stilo! Thanks in advance.

How about a 3 door non-silver car, courtesy of DOG

Thanks for the pic they look very very nice I think they suit the black car better but I think ill just buy em anyway what will tyres cost?

Has anyone seen the new fiat 17 inch wheels they are multi spoke like the Golf gti but much better they are beautifull - I still havent seen them on the road yet.

Check out these for tyres http://www.mytyres.co.uk/start.html OR try eBay - just search on tyre size.

Size is 215/45/17s - avoid Pirellis, I know I will next time round.

My Claw alloys are on ebay atm as they wouldn't fit without nearly 10mm of spacers which is too much of a risk, anyway here they are! Claw Alloys

i put goodyear eagle f1s on my claws at £85 a corner. very good tyres. i am sure the claws will look fine on a silver stilo. go for it.

Has anyone checked with Fiat yet to see if you can fit anything other than Pirelli, Goodyear or Michelins to the 17" rims ?

The manual for the Stilo seems to say only these makes are approved - not sure why, or where this leaves you with insurance if you fit something else!

This is news to me? Surely if you tell insurance that you have upgraded alloys, you don't have to tell them tyre make as well?!

And out of interest, what make of tyre comes with the car if ordered from new with 17s?

Mine had goodyear Eagle F1s' on from new.

Exactly, so I can't see them as non-approved supplier being an issue.

I have just been in contact with my insurance co to make sure they had my alloys on the policy. Turns out that I need to pay another £67 because they are none optional extrs..even though i paid £67 to have the larger alloys on from new...
Just because they are none standard but the same size..
Ah well, at least when i get my 18s' fitted i wont need to tell them.
