Hi Folks,
I have 22's on my S. Currently have 245/30/22 and 295/25/22 tires on it, but am considering moving to 285/30/22 in the rear to give a bit more "sidewall meat" to insulate against bumps.
My question is - that will give me a 5% difference in tire diameter front-to-rear. On some AWD vehicles, that's acceptable. On others, it has to be almost exactly the same or drivetrain issues will arise.
Obviously ours are a bit different, with two entierly different motors....but my question is, will a 5% difference in diameter have a negative effect on any of the electric drive systems?
