Greetings..

My mark 7 is currently running on 195/50/15 tyres(legal limit), have just been handed a set of 4 (7mm tread) 195/55/15. Can anyone tell me if there will be any major issues with me fitting these.I believe the 55 is the height of the tyre so am i correct in assuming the only issue will be cosmetic.

Any advice would be useful.

Thanks Mark(Tatty)post-13182-0-60774000-1342545991_thumb.jpg
