I have owned a 2022 XC40 T3 Inscription for 6 months. The car has 18" wheels with 235/55R18 tyres. I run them at the recommended 33psi all round. On a decently surfaced main road the handling is excellent,...
I have just found out that my car has the wrong size tyres to the rear wheels on my car. The tyres should be 255/45 R20 101vt. But have 235/50 R20 100 v tyres fitted the same as the front. Is this a problem?...
