Question about a rumor i head
Saturday, February 14, 2009 3:24 PM
A friend of my dad told me that if you put on tires that are bigger than the factory specs... (Example: Factory tires for a car are 14"..and you put on a 16" tire)...that the speedometer reading is not the true reading...in fact you are actually going a few mph faster?

anybody else heard of this and is it true

Yes it true if the total tire size is bigger then stock it will effect the speedo this thread will tell you everything about it.

you can have anythign from 14" wheel to a 19" wheel and the speedo will be fine as long as you get the right sizee tire to keep the overall diameter the same.
