What scooby says - a bit of a difference in size doesn't matter all that much. Previous owner was running 195x60 on the stock 15" rims. Should be 55s apparently, but ATS fitted two new tyres the same size just before purchase, so it's clearly within safety thresholds. So I naturally also don't think it's a problem, apart from knowing that I can drive a good 10% "over the speed limit" through speed cameras

Still not sure whether I want to go for the more accurate 55s next time, or just lump it and buy some snazzy new 16" rims, but unfortunately I don't have the luxury of my insurer allowing non-factory-fitted alloys, so I'm stuck with Volvo brand wheels whatever I do. And my partly matched bog standard budget tyres grip pretty well for me!
