I have an 02 with 42,000 on it. I just went form the stock tires that came on to 265's. I had the dealer reprogam the Allison. Yesterday I was reading on the Allison web site that any change of the orginal size tire would have some adverse affect on the transmission. Has any one had any problems with over size tires? I know some or running 285. thanks

Don't worry about it. It will harm nothing.

Wana bet???


So now that I got the big tires I need a big exhaust...hmmmm...more air out means i need more air in...big intake...hmmm...now that I got the intake and exhaust I can add more power...but I will only use the low setting...WOW...well maybe the next to lowest will be OK, it's not that much more...WOOOOOW...OK I'm just going to try the high tune once to see how it feels...6 months later your buying 2 new tires (just the ones on the rear for some reason) and asking ?'s like "why will my truck not exceed 2000 rpm?"http://dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Embarrased.gif
