outatime Posted February 4, 2004 Share Posted February 4, 2004 Your tyres are the right size. Stock tyre sizes are in the 'resources' section, they are 235x45x17 255x40x17. I don't know anything about Silverstone tyres, get your mate to quote you for some Goodyear F1s. They shouldn't be much more... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick_TC Posted February 4, 2004 Share Posted February 4, 2004 If your going budget tyres go for the Kuhmo Ecsta 'supra' 712 tyres, there loads and loads of tyre threads, quite recently with prices aswell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick_TC Posted February 5, 2004 Share Posted February 5, 2004 If you can get F1 for 100 notes fitted, then you'd be a fool not too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted February 5, 2004 Share Posted February 5, 2004 I wouldn't put Silverstones on my car. I've never heard of them. Who makes them? Are they Z rated? Ring Micheldever to check the price of Goodyear F1s I think that the Kuhmo Ecsta 'Supra' 712 tyres are not available anymore Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitesupraboy2 Posted February 5, 2004 Author Share Posted February 5, 2004 Yes they are 'Z' rated the silverstones but....
