Due to delivery of the wrong complete winter tyre kit, clients/garages may have installed a wheel-tyre-combination which is not authorised for the vehicles. When driving, high loads together with high speeds could overstrain the tyres and result in inadmissible heating which could cause damage to the tyres.
