I have noticed that with 18" wheels my car, when I first crank it =
after it has been sitting, acts as if it doesn't want to change gears =
(automatic trans). Once I get up to about 30MPH it will shift and then =
is OK after that. I've heard that it has something to do with RPM's of =
the large diameter wheel.
