Pilot Tire Size and Its Affect
Thanks for giving me the opportunity to post my question. My wife and I just purchased a 2017 Pilot. Because we live in the snow belt region of NW Michigan, I plan to buy snow tires for this vehicle. The OEM tire size is 245/60/r18. If I ran 225/60/r18's on the car, the tire calculator I've used for my research is saying there is a circumference difference of almost 3" less, resulting in about 22 more revolutions per mile. My question is would this harmful to the vehicle's transmission and anything else that might be affected by the reduced tire size? Thanks for your insights.
