I asked a family memeber to get me some tyres as she works for a company that scraps cars and anything metal. She has just dropped off 4 nearly new tryes the problem I just noticed is they are 195 60 15 not 55 like I asked, will I get away with fitting these or are they gonna rub, I thought I got a bargain at 20 quid a corner all matching and over 7mm of tread.

Thanks All
They are only to get it through the MOT next month as I want some different alloys once the sun comes out if it ever will so didnt want to spend a fortune on new tyres just to change them in around 2 months times. They look like balloons to be honest so going to look horrid on and the car already handles like a oil tanker I am not use to the soft ride so thats going to be even softer. Really got to change the springs.
