The wheel sare all tied together through the drivetrain, all pushed at equal speeds by the engine. The bigger diameter of a tire, the further it rolls per one rotation. If one set of tires are bigger than the other, the bigger set will push the smaller set and the smaller set will drag the bigger set... putting LOTS of stress on the drivetrain.
The tire sizes work probably different than you think. The 1st # is the tread width in millimeters, the 2nd # is the aspect ratio and works off of a percentage of the treadwidth... so a 275/40 is different height from a 295/40 and so on. The 275/40 and 315/35 are at the same rolling diameter which is why they are the best tire size option. If you go on a site like tirerack.com and click "specs" when looking at a tire, it will give you the overall diameter and revs per mile for each tire size. Here's some to look at. Dunlop did their homework to make tires the same size: http://www.tirerack.com/tires/Spec.j...e1=yes&place=0 Yet look at the different #s on the yokos:http://www.tirerack.com/tires/Spec.j...e1=yes&place=0
