Have done a wee search and seems to be conflicting views.. can anyone clarify..?
Recently picked up a disco which came with 20 inch RR rims with 275/40/20's ... The front 2 tyres were pretty worn but managed to pick up a couple of 'new' 275/45/20's for a bargain £90 a piece. I put the higher profiles on the back and moved lower profiles to the front to get home and plan on changing the fronts now to 275/45/20's as well.
Am I ok to drive like this in the mean time as the front axle has different 'rolling radius' to rear axle ??
I have scanned through previous posts and some folk say as long as the 'rolling radius' matches on each axle you're ok but others seem to say no this will still damage diffs...
Have ordered some new 275/45/20's but gonna be a couple of days... any help on this matter appreciated...
