Ford Galaxy - EC Type Approval - Tyres - the_bandit

Hi,

The EC Certificate of Conformity for my car states a tyre size of 215/60/R16 94H however the vehicle came supplied new with a slightly higher spec of 215/60/R16 99V.

Is it legal to refit the car in the UK with the '94H' spec tyre or must I replace with the same supplied from new?

Regards.
