It would not matter at all if the overall package size is the same. Finding tires to make the same package might be a problem though. Wheels can be an issue too.

LUVMY02CREW

Got a question along the line of the op... Would it matter if the wheel is 15, 16, 18 or 20 inches if you have the same tire circumference/height & width and same backspacing on your wheel? Or to put it another way...As long as the overall dimensions of the tire/wheel combo are the same, would it ma...

Just thinking outloud here, but to me it seems like the root cause of the rough running and idle was the bad sensor telling the engine to pump more fuel in the driver's side.

Oh, yeah.....update for today..... During commutes today, the code P0137 reappeared(post cat low voltage... which is the one I swapped positions with). So that one is obviously bad.
