Hi

My 98 exp came with dinky little pizza cutters for tires. 245 75 16.

I upped the size to 265 75 16 BFG all terrain ko's. It looks better and sits a bit higher now. The problem I'm having is that my engine died a couple times after I upped the tires. Right when I start her up and shift to drive. After that it's okay.

Is this because I need to program the wheel size into the computer or something?

Or is it totaly unrelated?
