Pros and cons on replacing 17" wheels and tires with 19.5"
Just want to see if there are any negatives and positives besides cost. It is time to get new tires for my 2006 3500 Dodge Mega cab. Thanks

I probably left something out.
Pros
1. The tires can have more capacity.
2. The tire sidewalls are stronger.
Cons
1. Rougher riding.
2. Track due to less sidewall give.
3. Can't air them down for beach driving.
4. The minimum tire pressure is a lot higher so rougher riding without a load as well.
5. Harder to stop, start, change because the tires/wheels are heavier.
