No you do not. Bigger tires and wheels have nothing to do with it stopping.

Can you put bigger tires on rims Or if you want bigger tires you need new rims also?
Yes you can put bigger tires on your existing wheels up to a point. Talk to your local tire dealer and they can advise you on the biggest tires you can use.
Why do you calibrate speedometer after bigger tires are installed?
You recalibrate it because bigger tires mean different speeds... for example, lets say your car had 14 inch tires... and your speedometer is saying that you are going 50, if you add 20 inch tires which is 6 inches bigger, you might be going around 60-70. No need to get a speeding ticket. Bigger tires cover more road then smaller tires, for example for ever 1 turn from a 20 inch tire is like 1 and ahalf turns from a 14 inch... Hope Ive helped you understand why :)

Will tire chains for a 185 65 14 fit a 185 70 14 tire?
The difference between tire sizes is 1.29in. So if on your 185/65-14 tires you have an extra inch and a half of slack adjustment they will more than likely work with the bigger 70 profile tires. Remember that if your tires are quite worn when you put the chains on you will need more than 1.29'' of slack because the new tires will have more meat on them and a bigger diameter.
