255 / 55 / 18 AT2's

I have been offered a set of the above at £120.00 + VAT fitted each

Are there any problems / issues with running these at this size rather than the standard 255 / 60 / 18's??

Any advice greatly appreciated

Thanks

Agree, pointless fitting them, reduced clearance off road and speed will over-read, stick to correct 255/60/18. Slightly larger than standard is OK but don't go smaller. 2020 BMW X1 18d XDrive X-Line Auto

More importantly, I've got a feeling the 255/55's are only weight rated at 108.
