and limit the mechanical traction via a harder spec tire.. if folks actually had to modulate the throttle a bit, the majority of the stress and amp draw (from hard acceleration) would be eliminated... it's not like 36r tires are drifters.. they may even grip better than 27's under certain conditions and last longer to boot.. so cost goes down...
