Forgot to say that it is the M Sport

What does it say on the sticker in the door jamb?

Is it an E92? Mr Google tells me 255/30/19 if it is.

Yep, 255/30x19 is the right size, so yes, if they put 35 aspects on they did fit the wrong ones.

[Ehackett]

Thanks I checked on the door and it should be 30 however they are unwilling to take the blame even though I can prove it previously had 30's as well, so it's either shell out for new ones or put up with it what are the effects of having 35's instead of 30's?

Speedo and gearing will be out. DSC, tyre pressure monitoring and ABS will not function as intended.

[Ehackett]

Well st that's definitely is an issue looks like im going to have to pay out then thanks for all the help.

Does anyone know if Yokohama do run flat tyres in 255/35/R19 they are the tyres they claim to of taken off, I can't seem to see them online

Pretty sure they don't.

Are you sure they were run-flats they took off?

[Ehackett]

Yeah 100% they were run flats mate, their excuse is that they replaced exactly what they took off, however this appears not to be the case as I am positive it had 30's on before have contacted Yokohama to double check and if not I will try and request a refund however I doubt they will accept.

Only I don't think Yokohama make a run-flat in 255/30x19 either??

[Ehackett]

Yes you are correct just checked they only do up to 18" which leaves me confused because I'm sure it had run flats but that means it was either on r18 which I guess may not fit or wasn't run flat in the first place when it was sold to me once again thanks for all the help. If it is only the rears that are on a 35 instead of 30 will it still have the bad affects listed above?

A 18" tyre won't fit on a 19" rim

Likely you didn't have run-flats on the car....maybe even the wrong size, so tyre place just fitted like for like rather than put right size on?
