General Gazzazz,

For my 2008 IS350 RWD I have the stock tyre size:

225/40R18 for the front and 255/40R18 for the Rear

However, I would like to Install 255 in the front as well, for better ground clearance.

Is that recommended, considering I'm going against car spec?

Any cons I should take note of?

height will not change but only width, you will only mess up the turning angle as the wheel will touch the body frame especially when you make a full turn left or right.

Hi Gazzuz,

I have a 2005 Camry, automatic, V6. A few days ago someone had borrowed the battery. It was put back in the other day but I didn't supervise. Today I drove the car and noticed the following.

1) It felt a bit sluggish, it was not as responsive as it usually is with acceleration and even going around a corner. It felt..... Sleepy
2) Steering felt a tad stiffer than usual
3) when I slowed the car at a bend, the car died. I'd to restart it. (I had also observed that when I originally started the car, it didn't 'catch' and I'd to do it a second time)

PS before the battery was taken out, it had the check engine light on. Now it's off but the car feels worse off.

What could be the problem please, car never had these issues before?

It was not an insult. Both of you were derailing on another person's thread, that's why the owner mentioned your monikers

Seriously, well I noticed the op has also made unnecessary statement in support of yours. My apologies to both of you.

in a few days it will relearn new values and normalize. This is a lesson, never give out your battery.

Thank you for your response.
Also, scan that car when next the check engine light shows and post codes here so we can help you solve the faults stored. The check engine light showing on your cluster indicates your car has a malfunction.

Sir,
225/40R18 and 255/40R18, I was think that the height is measured in % that is 40% of 225 and 40% of 255? in that case will the height not change?

The 255/40/18 is higher than 225/40/18. The 40 is aspect ratio. The diameter is higher by almost an inch.

Experience similar situation whenever I take out my car battery to start my neighbors car, did some research online and discovered that
engine powertrain module (aka brain box) stores certain information such as idle trim (tells the vehicle the right amout of fuel air mixture required for idle), fueling adjustments, amongst other drive pattern information which ensure a smooth run. In an event the battery is disconnected, all these Information are lost, and one might experience a rough idle on installing the battery.When this happens one has to perform "idle learning" to teach the car how to idle properly.  The step is listed below
- with the gear in 'p' and hand brake engaged, and all accessories off (radio,fan,ac,lights etc) turn the key to the on position twice but don't crank the engine. Crank the engine the 3rd time
-with the engine is running, step on the brake pedal and shift the gear to 'D'.(hand brake must be engaged).
-allow it idle for 2 mins and that's all
Rough idle disappeared.
Or u drive the car around for some time and allow it learn naturally,any way works.

Boss Gazzuzz, is it advisable to change only the engine on my Honda City 07 (8 plugs) or engine & gear box together. It barely moves now & AC is a no no. Very difficult to climb gallops/uphill, very sluggish.
