Would aftermarket wheels and tires void new car warranty?
Just like the thread title says, I was just curious if installing aftermarket (larger) wheels and tires would void a new vehicle's warranty.
I plan on switching over the existing TPMS sensors to the new wheels and have it reset so that it would not trigger the TPMS light inside the vehicle, but was just wondering if anything else would be of concern when it comes to new wheels and tires on a vehicle that is still covered under warranty.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for the reply matt84.
It's for an 07 CR-V. Stock tire size is 225/65/17. New tire size would be 245/50/19.
Unfortunately, the new tire size is the only ideal tire size for the V as other size options would be too large of a difference. Right now, the difference from 17's to 19's with the listed tire sizes would be a 10mm (larger) difference in overall circumference.
The only drawback I see is the limited choices I have with the 19" tire size.
