You need to service the transmission. Have the fluid/filter changed. If that does not help, seek professional help.

What is A torque converter?

a major part of an automatic transmission... A torque converter is what couples the engine to the transmission. It acts a little bit like a clutch and allow the engine to drive the transmission. At slow engine speeds, like at idle, it slips so the engine will not stall while the transmission is in gear. As engine speed (RPM) increases it allows the engine to drive the transmission. This is just the basic idea of what a torque converter does.

Why would your car feel like it shifting gears going down the high way but not in low speeds like in town?

Automatic transmission shifts can be related to fluid temperature and some vehicles also have sport style settings that can change shift quality. If the shifting is irregular and causing unusually high engine speeds this could be a symptom of transmission gear slippage. Gear slippage can result in transmission damage, and should be checked as soon as possible. Automatic transmissions are complex systems, and their overhaul/replacement can be very expensive repairs.

Does a change in tire size affect a transmission gear?

Your transmission shifts according to the speed you are traviling. Different tire size rotate different speeds according to how big or small they are, small tire will rotate 2 times as a big tire rotates 1 so the ratio is 2to1 so if u have bigger tires u will travel further and faster than a smaller tire so it will affect when transmission shifts

Is a transmission with 3 speeds plus OD called a 3 speed or a 4 speed?

4 speed. There are three speeds in which the transmission permits more slippage between the engine flywheel and the torque converter. The OD, or "overdrive" gear is a fourth gear that creates a direct mechanical connection between the transmission and engine. This creates a higher gear ratio that improves gas mileage.
