I've seen a couple people mention sizes edging up to 27" outer diameter that would fit... Has anyone got any real-world thoughts on that? Pictures?
Thinking about something like a Bridgestone Ecopia 422 that is available in a number of sizes, the biggest option right at 27" seems to be a 215/65/R16 and they have others that are between 26 and that 27".
The goal is raising the ride height slightly and also giving more clearance between the road and the rim for all the potholes I seem to keep finding, and more MPG is always nicer with a taller tire.
So... Thoughts?
