Dodge dart tuning
Asked by Piggster13 Apr 10, 2016 at 09:01 AM about the 2015 Dodge Dart SE FWD
Question type: Car Customization
I'm trying to get more power out of my 2015 Dart
SE I was wondering if you had any pointers as to
were I should start. I was also thinking about
replacing the 16" stock tires with 18s but did not
know how that would affect the suspension or gas
mileage.

I would refrain from any performance modifications on this vehicle until the warranty expires. any work you do may void the warranty. at least check with the dealer first.
If you put 18" wheels on your Dart, I would recommend 225/40-18 sized tires to keep the outer diameter of the tire the same, so your speedometer won't be off. When going from 16" to 18" wheels, you will feel more bumps in the road due to less sidewall, but cornering should improve with less sidewall deflection.
If you're concerned with fuel economy, look for a tire with low rolling resistance.
