changing tire size
I currently have 255/70/17's on my 2007 f150 supercrew....not to common a size when needing winter or all seasons, so I want to switch to a 265/70/17...any issues with just switching?

Your speedometer (and odometer) will read 1.7% slower than reality with the new size.

very little difference when the speedometer reads 65 you'll be doing 66
1/2" taller and 1/2" wider roughly.
