Yes, according to my neighbor, the ABS system sensor data is interpreted =
based on what it thinks the tire size is. You may want to go out on an =
empty road and try a high speed "panic stop" test and see how your truck =
does. He did not mention any other systems being affected (IMHO, the ABS =
is important enough to get it done).

I changed from 215/75R15 wheels to 235/75R15 wheels, keeping the 15x6
steel rims that came with my stock 97 dak. I know the tire change =
affects
the speedo readings, and I did not feel I needed to bring it to
Dodge for adjustment because the difference is only a few miles per =
hour.
Gas mileage is a little lower as well, but I thought I heard that =
changing
tire diameter might have additional affects. (Such as affecting ABS
braking.) Is this true? What other systems will a larger tire cause? =20
