205/45 R16?

yup.. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/2-X-BRAND-NEW-FEDERAL-205-45-16-W-ZR-RATED-TYRES_W0QQitemZ8044388782QQcategoryZ9891QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

I think 'Ninja Alex' has these on his new RS6 style 5 spoke 17"s and Ialso I saw in the Alloy Wheel section that Devonutopia had some the same make - they may know?

I put a set of 205/45ZR16 Federals on my Sisters Pug 206 - only cost about £45ea fully fitted...

...bought them as "Budgets" - unbranded, as in you get what's on the truck...

Brother-in-law likes them (he drives the car the most), but readily admits he's not a sporty driver...

Make no mistake, as far as I am concerned, these tyres are the BEST budget tyre there is. I had some fitted to my last car an they were fantastic ! Well, for 45 quid they are ! They did loads of miles as well. No issues.

Now on my ninth set of them, mate only runs them too. No match for the price. Personally, i find they work brilliantly on the Fabia. Highly recommended, and the rim protector is HUGE

Thanks for the replys people! I may well be giving that guy a ring, and try them out, bargin at that price...

Having said that you can spend another £10 per tyre and get some not budget Pirelli Nero's from mytyres.co.uk which as many members have said, are fantastic!

yeah I read the reviews when I did a search for the federals... I'm a bit skint at the mo, but another 20 quid should be managable...... may try the nero's..... hhmmm decisions decisions!
