Tire question

Had an issue with rear passenger side tire where it needed to be replaced, I take it to a tire shop and they told me they didn’t have the tire I wanted but they have a pirelli scorpion in stock. Get car later on that day and drive home. Come to find out that that the new tire put on is measurement 275/45 R20 and looks bigger then the pzero I have on the driver side rear which is a 275/40 R20, which is the correct size it’s supposed to be.
So my question is, would the car be okay with the new tire size? Or do I have to go back and tell them wrong size was put on.

No, absolutely not. Bad for the LSD too. Don't drive it until they have the correct tire for you.

I agree with the answers above. If you run that tire for very long you’ll regret it

You should also replace both sides. Mismatched tires are a no no.
