Changing wheels and tyres
My Citroen DS4 has 18-inch wheels and low profile 225/45 R18 tyres. I have done 3000-miles and the ride is poor. I am assuming that the large wheel and low profile tyres are to blame.
This leads me to ask the following:
- Are there any suppliers out there who would swap the wheels and tyres for more sensible ones?
- Would swapping the wheels and tyres invalidate my warranty?
-Would swapping the wheels and tyres affect my insurance and would I have to let my insurers know of the swap?

Visit www.tyremen.co.uk a set of 6 TUV approved Alutec alloy wheels are £335 inc, plus the tyres.
Unless you fit Citroen wheels, you will void your warranty. You will also need to disclose any swap to your insurer.
