Message	If you drive your car up onto some planks, under the front and rear tires, you have raised the car off the ground, but have not altered the geometry of the suspension. The same can be said of a larger wheel/tire. They will not change the camber, caster, or toe of the hub/spindle assembly to which you mount the wheel/tire.
