Xc60 Tyres
Quite by chance noticed today the tyres on my fwd 2015 xc60 are different front to back
235/65R18 on the front to 235/60R18 on the back , can only assume previous owner was told by the fitters this was ok Anyone have a view please ? |

Your rolling circumference is going to be greater on the front. Could put your speedo out. |
FWD , 235/65R18 on the front , 235/60R18 on the back

It's not factory (all tyres were same size) but it's not illegal or dangerous either, as long as the tyres are match on the same axle and do not foul the bodywork or chassis.
As said above, if the larger tyres are on the front it will make your speedometer read less. |

Speeding illegal, yes. Non factory size tyres on car (that match across axle and do not interfere with bodywork) completely legal. |

Good evening sir just pulled you over to ask if I can borrow your car to go for a spin and check your speedometer is accurate? - Not likely to ever happen in the real world. |
Swap front and rears sounds like the best solution providing they clear chassis ok
I’ll look to return to standard when the rears wear out ! |
