Nothing will be hurt or damaged from this. Speedo will be off a few percent. I'd have them fix it.

My wife has a 2015 LE, she got it new, this is her car and she takes care of it. About 6 months ago she needed to replace the rear tires, she when to the ford dealer where she brought the car, they put 2 new Michelins on. Last night she asked me to check under the car to see if she ran over something. Any way I noticed that the new tires are 255 40 r19, this car came with wider rims on the rear and 275 40 r19 tires.
So I got 2 questions:
Tech question, I know that the speedometer will be off, will this cause any other problems? She doesn't track the car.

Relationship question, should I say anything to her? This is her car and wants to take care of it her self.
Any update? Did your wife kill you for telling her?
