That will wreak havoc with my gearing and speedometer ratings..
going from a stock 205-75-15 to a 215-85-16 is a bit too large..
When my speedometor reads 60mph, my actual speed will be 67.3mph..
now going from a 205-75-15 to a 215-65-16 id dam close...
When my speedometor reads 60mph, my actual speed will be 59.8mph..
right now I'm running 225-60-16's
When my speedometor reads 60mph, my actual speed will be 58.9mph..
So I think I'm on the right track for tire size.
I'm just trying to find the best deal possible for 60 to 80K tires and
an alighment all at the same time for less than 500 out the door..
So far Sears with their BF Goodrich Revelation tires with alighment $485 out the door.
Costco doesn't do alighments, but they have Michelin X Radials for $454 out the door and I believe their a better designed tire..
