    So what's the biggest tire size upgrade you guys would recommend without any if these mileage, sluggish start,or drivetrain strain issues?

    Only way to avoid any mileage issues is to stay stock...it's really not a big deal.

    I ran 275/60 for 4 years and now have 265/60. Stock tires just look too small on the VX in my opinion...
