Tire question
I used to have a 1997 f150 that had p235/70r16 size tires. I now have a 2000 f150 that I bought with low miles, but it has p255/70r16 tires. The 2000 f150 needs new tires and I am wondering if I need the p255 size tires because I looked it up and the p235 size tires were an option on the 2000 f150. What is involved in changing tires sizes or is it a bad idea to do so? I imagine the computer needs to be reprogrammed? What about the speedometer?
The label on the drivers door on the 2000 f150 does say p255 size tires...
Thanks,
<Mike

Put them on and enjoy.
The speedo is and will be off a bit but you can see that the next time you run by a road side speed monitor and then know what correction to apply to the speed indication.
My truck is stock and 2 to 3 mph high reading and it has the stock size tires.
Good luck.
