True but also the difference of the 175 vs the 155 tire is only like a pound less too so I mean when it cometo rotating mass in the city every pound less counts.

The difference between the 155 to 175 is only like a pound or 2 also but in city driving less weight rotating mass the better

I was thinking along the same lines, but last time I checked, I think the 155/80-13's were more expensive, and much less available. Would you even recoup the extra cost over the 175?

A con of the 155 may be braking traction, especially in wet conditions. That is a serious concern. But I have driven cars on 175's and never experienced a safety issue, maybe 155's are fine to

Check the difference in load capacity too.
