Can I get some suggestions for good upgraded (larger) wheel/tire pairings that have worked out for you? Nice specific sizings and brands please.
Also, does going to a larger diameter tire affect the speedometer and/or void the warranty?
Thanks much.

Hello @
SnowCrash7 and welcome to posting to ye ol forum ......
The tires that have worked for me, up here in the PNW, are the OEM size, Goodyear Eagle Sport all-season.
They do a decent job on snow, a good job on wet roads and hold their own on dry roads.
I don't do auto-X nor track my car.
Personally, for my type of driving, I see no reason to go to a larger tire.
Yes, a larger tire (in diameter) will effect the speedometer reading a bit.
No, a larger tire should not effect any warranty claims (unless they were associated with the change in tire size). Like putting on drag slicks, dumping the clutch and turning in a claim for a broken axle.
