    Help, winter tire problems!

    its a hell of a jump in size considering stock is 23.7" tall tire, your currently rockin a 23.3" tall tire or .4" smaller The ones your looking at are 26.5" tall or 2.8" taller then stock or 3.2" taller then what your running now. I'd be surprised to see them not rubbing on bumps and turns.
