What are the impacts of changing from 165 tires to 185?
1 Answers
There are several factors to consider when changing from 165 to 185 tires: 1. Whether the new size is significantly larger or smaller than the original will directly affect the odometer reading, increasing speedometer deviation. 2. Wider tires will also increase resistance, leading to higher fuel consumption. 3. If the new tires are both wider and larger in diameter, it will directly impact the engine's acceleration performance. 4. When changing tire models, it's important to ensure the error between old and new tires remains within ±3%. Exceeding this range may reduce vehicle handling, increase braking distance, and cause noise from tire rubbing against wheel arches during turns.
