Hi, I just upgraded my newly bought (second hand) honda cr-v gen 4, 2015 to a 20inch mags from its original 17inch. The look was so cool and admirable however, when I drove through the highway and pick up a speed of 100kph, I noticed a loud engine noise, and strong road noise. I also noticed that my km/liter of gas have increased. Is this due to the change in the size of my wheel? Thanks in advance. Dan

First if you didn't keep the same aspect ratio your speedometer may be way off. Second going to wider tires will 100% decrease your fuel mileage. Also wider tires produce much more road noise.
