Is there an advantage to bigger tires?

Perhaps the most significant benefit of larger tires is the extra distance it creates between your car’s undercarriage and the ground. This is particularly important for off-roading enthusiasts who need that extra space to clear rough terrain. Higher clearance also helps drivers see farther both on and off the road.

Do bigger tires slow you down?
