Car was in getting serviced at my OPC. They said both front tyres have 5mm, both rears have 3mm.

Can I swap back and fronts? Haven’t checked to see if there are any differences, but if not, can I?

Car is on 20” turbo alloys I think.

Definitely not, check the tyre sizes. Mind you it could be an interesting experiment.

I've read, here, or on the PorscheGB forum, that somebody got their Macan back from an OPC in exactly that condition, it took a few days before it was noticed!

They may have appeared late in Gen 1 but I have the 20 inch Turbo with black gloss as a Gen2 option. They are not shown as an option in the gen1 2018 Macan catalogue I hold
