I was planning on going on a tad smaller tires, due to having already large tires as standard but now I'm wondering...
I was in the same boat when I needed to change my tires, was going to target ~5% larger tires, but went with factory sized... kind of wish I would have bought 2 larger to test, worst case put them in the back (FWD).
