dennis03+FollowBig tires look cool but it might destroy your transmissionBig tires can look awesome on a truck or SUV. But I found something on the internet recently that proves there's a limit before you start causing some serious headaches for your vehicle's transmission It turns out, just putting on bigger tires without changing anything else can really mess with how your car shifts. Your transmission relies on knowing your speed accurately, and bigger tires make your wheels spin slower for the same distance. This totally confuses the system, making it shift late and work much harder than it's supposed to. That extra strain can cause all sorts of problems: Sluggish acceleration, Delayed or "hunting" shifts, Increased heat in the transmission fluid... Ultimately, premature wear and even clutch burnouts. So, while those big tires look cool, they literally change how your drivetrain works. Experts say if you're going up more than a couple of inches in tire size, you really need to regear your differential. #BigTires #Tires #TruckLife #CarTips #Cars 40Share

Nicole Morgan+FollowThe Truth About Prinx TiresPrinx tires are shaking up the budget tire game—made by Prinx Chengshan in China, they promise premium features without the premium price. They even offer solid warranties (up to 70k miles!). But here’s the catch: a 2024 NHTSA recall flagged some models for failing U.S. winter traction tests, so they can’t rock the Alpine snowflake symbol. Reviews are mixed—some love ‘em, some had blowouts. Would you risk it for the savings? #Tires #CarTalk #AutoNews #Cars30Share
