  1. Looks good I think a tight fit is better less likey to blow of I would cover them wheels up to stop people tempting to be nosey of what's under the cover just the wheels showing you can see it's something special but if covered they know nothing and it could be any thing under there

    Good point. I'll do that.

    It is better being a tight fit. If it had standard bumpers the cover would tuck under nicely.

  2. 225 is the propper size. ive put 195/40/16 on mine

    Cheers. I'll go for the bigger size I think.

    Love that colour by the way.

    I've had an Escort RS Turbo and Focus ST in grey.

  3. cheers mate :cool::cool:

    What size tyres have you got on those Cossie rims please mate?

    I'll be putting a set on my 97 Cab soon.

    To match up the original size wheels one of those tyre calculators is telling me I need to fit 215/40/16 tyres.

    Escort Cosworth tyres are 225/45/16. I'd prefer this size as there's more tyres on the rim.

  4. Yes it has!

    It does say to continually check the tightness of the straps.

    I'll see once I've fitted it. I've not bothered yet as I'm still like an excited kid so I've been using the car a lot.

    Once I know it will be parked up for a while I'll put the cover on.

  5. Only owned the car for two weeks and decided to give it some TLC today.

    Just the basics, oil change plus oil/air/fuel filters and plugs.

    Got home and the Tonneau cover I bought was waiting for me and it fits fine so a good day with the cab today!

     

    After browsing the the forums I think I'll invest in a wind deflector at some point as well.

     

    Bring on the sunshine!
