Tires Width vs Tires Diameter

[Ogima]

hello comrades,

 

would appreciate some inputs here. thank you in advance.

 

Tire Width vs Tire Diameter

same size of rims with same tire tread design...which of the below will have a higher FC ?

 

a) 245/50R19 = wider tires

 

b) 235/55R19 = higher sidewall, bigger overall diameter.

 

 

Speedo Deviation vs Total Distance Travelled.

if with the above latter Oversize tires, the speedometer displacement is 5.6% from my stock tire configuration 225/60R17.....ie when my speedo reads 100kmh, my actual speed is 105.6kmh.

 

from the below link, i found that most parameters had a deviation of 5.6% (diameter, circumference etc.)

now the question is.... if i use the Oversize tires, when my meter trip A for One Full Tank is 500km....does it also meant that the actual distance covered is 528km (plus the 5.6%) ?

 

awaits your kind contribution.

any advices ?

Technically yes, provided u manage to hit 528km in 1 full tank. Chances are your pickup may slack endup more fuel comsumption.

 

You may drive over the speed limit without notice it.

Confirm cannot, upsize above 3%. In order for your anti-lock brakes to work properly. Traction and stability control systems can also be adversely affected.

 

Either sizes for you...

 

1. 245/50/18

2. 235/45/19
