Tyres and fuel consumption


Recommended Posts

I am thinking of putting bf goodrich a/t 's on and would be going up in size from 255/55/18 to 265/65/18 does anyone know how much difference this could make to the fuel consumption? Is there a way to calculate the difference in rolling radius and would this affect the speedo because the speedo is taken of the box not cable driven.

Thanks

Mike
