tjeeper46 Posted November 5, 2016 Report Share Posted November 5, 2016 If I remember right, the stock tire was 265/65 R18. My new tires are 275/70 R18. Thus, the tire size changed from ~31" to ~33". That is about a 5% change in rolling distance and that adds up quickly over a few miles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still have problems envisioning that normal tire wear (same size tires) and/or rotation of tires on a vehicle has any affect. I have never experienced any problems but have stayed with the same size tires. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
