Default Re: changing to 5.50 Bias Ply = changing to 3.54 ratio

Years ago, I had a Volvo 122S that could get to 100 with its stock tires (15 inch wheels). I changed to bigger rear tires and suffered loss of gas mileage and performance. Maybe it was the dynamics of that particular car that made the use of larger rear tires counterproductive.
