I have been told by several people that changing your tire size too much may
cause the abs system to make the veichle unsafe!
Is that possibly true? We have a 96 Ram that came with 225/75X16 tires and
someone changed them to 265/75X16. Those tires are a lot taller than the
original ones. Sometimes it seems the rear brakes on that truck don't work
at
all but the linings and wheel cylinders have been replaced. We have another
ram
just like it with 345/75X16 tires on it and the brakes seem ok. is it
possible
that the extremely oversized tires cause the problem?
