Very true - if the bloke had said to me that grip level will be quite different so may effect handling balance I'd be happy to take them at their word. It's not like I drive the car to the limits of its grip in any case!
Apparently the 20s are on back order from France so been advised to order early otherwise I may be waiting a very long time for them. Will see if it passes MOT in a couple of weeks and decide then if I need to get rhem ordered. May find myself off the road for a few weeks if it fails on tyres!
