Options Tyres & Locking Wheel Nuts

magicedd1970 · 28th November 2007, 11:04

Hi,

I am due to pick up a new Civic i-CTDI EX in a few days.

I know the Alloys are supposed to be 17" but does anybody know what the standard fit tyres should be on the car (what brand, what size?), and whether a set of locking wheel nuts should be present.

This isn't somethign I discussed with the dealer and I'd like to have my facts straight when I check the car over.

Regards,
Ed.

Locking wheel nuts are shown as a £45 option but my EX did turn up with them fitted as standard.

Locking wheel nuts supplied without cost to me on my ES

It always seem to mention that they are a £45 option but all cars in the two dealerships I visited had a set in the glovebox. They all seem to come with them fitted as standard.

Great thanks for that. What about the brand of tyre? Goodyear? Michelin?

Michelin is standard.
