Do not go by appearance or tyre size. This is avery important issue which can cost you big money in the long term. The centre clutch is continually in slip mode and there will be wear and tear.

Jack up your wheels and measure the circumference of the tyres at the centres using a dress makers tape measure, or carefully with a non stretch string, making sure this does not fall into a tread groove. If your measurements are within say a quarter inch you can rest in peace. If not you must do something about it.

If you have shops dealing in second hand tyres as we do here they could sort it out for you at minimal expense by doing a swop.
