I replaced the sensor yesterday with Bosch. Driving about 50 miles thus far and all seems great. I will keep you posted once I hit over 400 when light could possibly resurface.

Tires and various sizes

Hello Forum.

Can I place 275/35/20's on the front of my 4.6is? I know 275/40/20 are the norm. Just wondering if the first will work and produce no harm.
