Don't do it!
Don't change from 50 series tires to 55 series.
As I have driven on these new tires for 2 days now, I have come to the conclusion that there is a significant torque loss with the larger diameter. While I do like the slightly softer ride, I wish I had the acceleration I used to.
Time to install that speedparts ECU I have sitting in the box.
