Tire size Question?
#2
The lower profile will mean that the rolling radius is a little smaller. This will slightly affect your speedometer and odometer accuracy. You'll actually be going a little slower than you read in the car. Your actual gas mileage will probably go down a little, but you won't be able to tell because the odometer will be off. If you have access to a GPS unit, you could check this out.
The car will ride a little lower and the ride might be a little bit harsher. The bottom of the car will be a little closer to the ground meaning that you might get stuck in deep snow a little sooner than with the taller tires.
There aren't any large effects, but the car was designed to operate with a certain size tire so things will be a little different.
