Hi all, I had a tip-off that national were offering 20% discount on four new tyres or 10% on two, so I just had a look some Michelin crossclimate 2’s for my Volvo which are due a change. Mine are 235/55 R19 V-rated and £221.99 before discount (I am sure they were cheaper last month before the current discount) but the odd thing is, the same tyre when W-rated is £209.99. Am I being naive, but I thought the higher speed rating would be more expensive? Both are XL and have no other differences that I can see and both available tomorrow.
Is there any issues with fitting a higher speed rated tyre than the original?

£168 seems reasonable for Michelins.
