I need new tires for my accord. I'd like to try and get a higher
performance (i.e. larger) tire than the 205/60/16's that the manual calls for. My question is: What kind of issues am I going to run into if I want to put....say....a 225/50/17 or 18 or similar tire on the car. Can it be done? Should it be done? Kind regards, Kip |
