hi wonder if anyone can advise please.  I have bought a 2014 Zetec for one of my lads. Does anyone know what size tyres it would have come out of the factory with ?

I'm interested in the speedo reading.

Its currently on 195/55/15  and I think it should be on 195/50/15 ? but not too sure how the speedo reading is affected ?

There is a space saver in the boot which is a 125/80/15  - which is really for use with 195/50's.

Any thoughts advice would be welcome.

    According to the brochure, 195/55 was the standard fitment.

    That spacesaver is used widely across the range, btw, it's even specified for mine which is on 205/40x18s.

    The sticker on the Door Pillar should tell you what size of Tyres the car left the factory with.

    As the man says 🙂 - & the 195/50s were on pre facelift cars. At the 2012 facelift Ford increased the tyre profiles, at least on non performance models.

    If preferred you could source a 175/65 on a 14" wheel as a spare - these have been factory spares on lots of models and there'd be plenty on eBay I'm sure.
