Luke,
Firstly, the correct size for the focus is 215/45/17 not a 40 profile.
Secondly, don't skimp on tyres! they are the only thing connecting you to the road!!!
Agree completley!
I got stick off some relitives the other day because on the back of my car I have a Bridgestone with about 2mm on it and a cheapy which the dealer must have put on which is brand new.
I'm replacing both with goodyears and they keep going on about how I'm wasting my money and should only have replaced the Bridgestone and how I should have replaced it with another cheap tyre
