The P-Zero Neros on the XR4 definitely don't have run-flat technology. And apparently the XR4 rim is very pricey for what it is.

xr4 rim will probably cost you about 600 each from ford. just a rough guess. Tyres are 300 per corner for Pzero Nero's

If u wanna save some money, I'd suggest u getting a 17" MP3 wheel ($173 each) and some cheap no name brand tyre (around $100 each).

Voila, full-size spare tyre. But will it fit nicely in the boot?

That would be directly from ford. Thats the price they sell the rims for Brand new out of the box.

Hey,

I got them from Power Ford. Ask the quote over the counter... because they quoted me $300 a wheel when I asked over the phone (they only allowed to list retail price over the phone or something).

Yeh, the MP3 wheels look really good on the Fiesta (and Focus). Bru20vt recently said that the price of the wheels has gone up a bit... maybe so... just pop over PowerFord whenever you have the chance and ask for quotes.
