The 16" alloys were fitted to the poverty FL2.

The steel wheels are 17" and yes need the correct wheel nuts, NOT the same as the alloy nuts. I believe the steel wheels were a Ford design, used as a spare, although I have seen 17" steel with megga tread tyres fitted, look good.

I know of a guy who uses Winter tyres ......... all year round .[/quote]

is that correct 3lander?
as my motor came with a steel spare and no extra nuts, plus I don't recall see anything in the
handbook, although it was a long time ago I read it.

I had a 17” steel wheel with a 235/65 Wrangler as a spare. It had a 50mph limit emblazoned all over it probably as the wheel nuts were designed for alloys.
