Posted 15/02/04 05:36 AM Share Posted 15/02/04 05:36 AM That would be correct I think.If the ABS sensor reads every wheel revolution then a larger outside diameter tyre will produce a faster top speed. However the speedo will still only read as if standard tyres were fitted. You won't actually get the speedo to go any further around the dial with this change, but with a radar you would actually be going faster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this is why the speedo can be calibrated by the dealers, to match the difference in wheel/tyre combinations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chances of all 4 Wheel speed sensor's sh*tting themselves simultaneously are pretty slim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be patient and you will be rewarded. PeterAPS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
