275/ 60 /r17????


Through these past 6 month my rear tires have been changed through three different pairs and all with 275/40/r17. I was wondering if i put some 275/ 60/r17 on the back, would it still burn the tire as much?

The profile (40 vs. 60) will have zero bearing on tire wear in and of itself.

If you have burned 2 pair and going on your 3rd, you are doing WAYYYYYY to much tire spinning and need to remove that concrete cast on your right foot
