Hi got my self some alloys for my Stilo and wanted to know which tyres which tyres would be best for them and also what dimensions I.e profile size and stuff

Thanks Azza

Can't upload pic from iPhone but they alloys for a top Spec Stilo like scorpion shaped lol I don't know what they called

as nothing is standard anymore its of no use saying to get tyres say 145 x 65 x13 if you have 18" rims,bit harder to fit:bang:

claw stilo alloys?




in which case tyre size for a stilo on those alloys would be - 215/45/17

I've got a full set of 225/45/17 Goodyear F1 Eagle Asymetric II on Claws, brilliant tyres ..

what made you choose 225 instead of 215 shadey? cheaper or handle better?

If you'd seen the condition of the set Blades the Claws replaced you'd understand.

My missus is useless at parking close to the curb, she completely ruined the Blades so I wanted something a little wider to help protect the new Claws.

As a bonus the extra width makes the car look better, handling has improved too.

i DEFINATLY agree your missus cant park . (i keep meaning to send them for refurb)

What are the arguments for (& against) fitting 215(or 225)/45R17 UHP tyres to an old Stilo 1.2 Active?

120728

realisticly, not much difference will be felt...

mabee slightly slower but thats it really.

My Multiwagon on the M5 doing 125mph feels solid as a rock with a full set of 225/45/17 Asymetric II's ..

Edit.
And the speedo is more accurate when the cars doing 100mph ..
