That's strange, mine are definitely 45's, I've been out and checked!

I can't find them on ATS's site in this size anymore either, rather annoying as i only had them fitted a month ago and was going to get a matching pair to go on the rear!

I had a look on 4X4 for Three A P606 215 55 16s but couldn't seem to find any. I've also looked on Mytyres and Black Circles. Does anyone know of a stockist that carries them?

I'd never heard this until now

Although It'll be fixed when I get new rear ones!

I've never had any tyres rotated when replacing through a puncture either, I must have done 200k in the last five years and no garage has ever mentioned it

Default New Tyre's for me

I have had the choice of either putting new 17" or 15" tyres on my CDTI. I like the starspokes and the ride quality is not noticably lost compared to the 15" crowns but there is typically a cost to pay in £'s. I want quiet rubber and am happy to save a little by moving down from the premuim brands. I have now ordered 4 Avon ZV7 225/45/17 fully fitted for £259.96, look forward to trying these out.

After 13 years of ownership of my ZT-T I've settled on 18" Federals. I've found they have excellent all weather performance and durability and are very good value.
