Do wheel sizes affect the dyno result?  I mentioned that they do to Scotty last year and he pissed himself laughing.  Would like to hear from people who:

1.  ARE dyno experts

2.  HAVE had their cars dyno'd, especially if on 2 different wheel sizes

My car was tuned to 333rwkw on 17 in tyres.  Fitting the 19's showed the power figure to be 310 rwkw.

I had the power de-tuned back to 310rwkw on 17's.  A recent dyno with the same power level on my 19's showed the power to be 285rwkw.

Have others found the same thing?  If so, for brag value, obviously everyone will be quoting power figures from dyno runs with smaller wheels?

Would appreciate a discussion on this.

They definatly do buddy.

Increase the diameter therefore increase travel therefore decrease the time it takes to make a revolution.

Gearing also effects dyno results in the same way increase 3.46 to 3.73 shows a non existent horsepower increase also this works in reverse when you decrease.

Dont let anyone tell you otherwise this is a fact!

Dynos that work of the actual wheel hub\diff do not have this issue with wheels

I failed to mention that you can adjust the dyno to compensate!

Provided that they know how.

Yes, but what are the tyre profiles? You may find that the diameter, including the tyre, is very similar for both the 19's and the 17's??

Dyno settings were not touched.
