Message	A 40 sidewall tire is as tall/thick as ~ 40% the width of the tire. Basically that means a 25 sidewall (which is what you get if you get a 355 wide tire) for a 355 would be (88.75mm) which is MUCH different in height from a 25 (if they even made it) for a 255 which would be only 63.75mm. Also ride quality is a pure matter of taste.
