I currently have 35 in the front and 32 in the rear. Ride seems okay, but what does everyone else run?

why are you running 225 .. your tires are going to wear out fast and your speedo is off

according to this:

for every 10 mph over 100 you go you are 8 mph off

Re: hmmmmm

First of all, I don't drive over 100 alot.

and I dont' mind that i'm 1.59% off.

I searched alot before choosing 225/40 for 7.5" wheels. I coulda gone with 215/45, or 235/40 bla bla bal. But now that I think of it, I don't remmeber why i got 225/40.

Why do 225 wear out faster?
