A week ago a friend took delivery of a 2yo Mazda 3 ( lower spec and power model) with 12k miles on the clock.
Today he noticed that both the near side tyres were 185/60 R16 Toyo’s H rated.
Both the offside tyres are 205/60 R16 Yokohama V rated.
Bought from a large supermarket ( not Motorpoint). He’s been messed around after being kept waiting for a small paint job, and has today contacted the main dealer from where the car was supplied when new to ascertain what the correct size tyres should be.
I’ve never heard of such a thing…two different sized tyres on both axles. It would appear that the 120 point pre delivery check simply wasn’t sufficiently diligent.
In his circumstances, what would you recommend…thanks.
