do I have to use same size tires?


Recommended Posts

The tire place, I'm sure, is going by what the book says since there have been places sued by litigous ***holes for putting on different sized tires than the specs call for after the *** holes got in a wreck. As long as all four tires are the same (and not too radically different so as to make the center of gravity way different) it should be fine.

If you don't mind the speedo/odo error (with the larger tires, your speedo reads slower than you are actually going by a small amount) and you aren't getting any tire rub from the extra width and height...then you are fine. :)

 

As for the speedo error...you aren't too far off anyway, with your current difference from stock, when your speedo reads 60mph, you are actually going 61.2mph.
