Fitment & trouble codes
Changing tire size by more than about 3% shifts the speedometer, odometer and, on some vehicles, ABS/traction calibration — which can set wheel-speed-sensor or vehicle-speed codes. See C1234 (wheel speed sensor) and C0050 (rear wheel speed) if a warning light appears after a size change.
