icy do you know where online i can buy them?
Ive found ze512 pretty good buy on my tyres
http://213.61.145.242/cgi-bin/reifendirekt.pl?details=Ordern&cart_id=5016703.1453&P-ID=&language=&typ=D42542&ranzahl=4&Breite=205&Herst=&Quer=40&Felge=17&Load=&Speed=H&weiter=10&last_sort=&kategorie=&Ang_pro_Seite=&sort_by=&gesanzeige=&rf=&Transport=P&dsco=10&sowigan=
They look quite a slanted wall but the dont have the 513's.
Thanks

No they're already on my Astra, nearly slicks so yeah, useless in the wet and they wear fairly quick.

Falken FK-451's are better than the ZE's, Toyo Proxes T1-S also have slanted walls.

Falkens are all dodgy for grip tho...
If you want extra clearance on 17's and like me still want to be able to corner in the wet, then go for 195/40/17 Pirelli P Zero Neros, there on my shopping list...
