That is correct, unfortunatly not very often does it work out to have the size tire they recommend on a car... its all about maintaining the proper circumfirence. however this only helps the speedo and odo... the gas mileage and hangling will be affected reguardless because of a change in the placement of weight... and the fact you just added a ton of unsprung weight.
