Same as Tom says above, it can't hurt to flush [but not power flush!] the system and replace the ATF. Like him I suspect it will still be binding after the oil change.
The 4 tires are meant to be and supposed to be EXACTLY the same. Even though you are non-mechanical it is unreasonable to be trying to shake down this problem while using unmatched tires on the rear.
Replace the two on the rear with the exact same as are on the front. Or buy 4 cheapos all the same.
Then, after all those tweaks, if you still have a problem, you will be tackling Solenoid C like the guys say.
