Bad thing about bigger tires is having to mentally recalculate your speed/miles on a tank due to the speedo expected stock tire size. I think on newer vehicles you can have the ECU reprogrammed to adjust for the tire size, but on an older manual speedo, you're kinda stuck with what you got. Mind you, it's not that difficult to add x% all the time but it can be misleading if you forget and start to speed by going with the readout on the speedo.
