Not sure myself, so thought I'd consult the fountain of knowledge..

A colleague of mine has a Megane, 3 tyres 175's, and 1 a 155. This was just pointed out to her at a kwik-fit type outfit, and he said it might not be legal.

Any pointers would be appreciated.

Failed my MOT for this , had one 205 and one 215. So I suppose it's illegal, unless it's a temporary spare??

Never mind illegal, that would unbalance the car if you needed to brake hard in an emergency.

As far as I know, you can't pass MOTs on space-saver spare wheels, you have to get the proper wheels on first.

its o.k too have different width tyres but not on the same axle and normally fatter on the back;-)

yup, got to admit, i didn't realise mine were different and changed them asap.

I know you can have different sizes front to rear. I managed to get my golf through an MOT with 13" on the front (the 17's scrubbed) and 17's on the back
