I have ordered a new pair of tyres for my Ibiza this week and like a kn0b managed to get it all wrong.

i got confused somewhere between my old Fabias tyres (205/45/16) and my new Ibizas one (215/40/17) and as such i have ended up with a pair of Accelera Alphas in 205/40/17..

 

 

 

 

I dunno if they are going to be any use to anybody on here but thought i'd try to shift them tonight before arranging collection and a swap with camskill tomorrow

 

Pretty sure they are correct size for Fabia 1 owners running 17" spiders if anyone is looking for a couple of budget replacements

 

cost me £80.90 + £6 carriage for the pair

 

yours delivered to your door for £80 all in

Yea mate

good on the mk1 fabia.

they will still fit your ibiza tho wont they?

10mm narrower buy only a tad less rolling radius?

Glws tho

I have 2x 205/40/17 accelera's on my fabia now, not bad tyres for the price.

I would have them off you but I think I'm gonna go a bit more expensive next time as I can get my tyres at trade price now.

 

As said, I think I'd just stick with them if that's the make you were after.

It is only a pair though so I'd have 205s on the front and 215s on the rear

I thought mixing sizes was a no no

Will be fine. Front to back. You shouldn't however put different sizes on same axle.
