The wrong tyres

[miniman]

Having just driven up to Scotland on my 4 new P Zeros on my Discovery 4, it has dawned on me that it didn’t have P Zeros on it before, it had Scorpions. It never goes off road, so I assume it’s not the end of the world?!

Nope.

It’s the end of the world and your car is worthless.

I’ll give you £50 and frankly I’m being overly generous at that.

Not ideal from a roll stability perspective, so if you ever carry roof load be a bit cautious! It's surprisingly easy to roll a high CoG SUV if you fit summer tyres!

The reality is that you probably don't drive it like a rally car around the local B roads, however obviously emergency avoidance manoeuvres could get a bit interesting! You'll also probably find it a bit less surefooted in the winter as Pirelli's aren't generally very good under 12 deg C (why would they be when most of Italy never sees less than 15!)
