However, I have checked it with a GPS - my speedo is now spot-on accurate. From factory, our things are actually doing around 96km/h at 100 so mine is now accurate.I have standard suspension all round. I had to roll my guards at the rear and the 275's are still scraping around high-load or bumpy corners. It sits up a little more at the rear given the bigger diameter but to me, it actually looks quite good and not really that noticeable. It would be better to bring it down a little at the rear (beware the tyre scrape if you do and extra loading on your CV's for those with big power) - it may actually help to reduce the diagonal pitching that it has now from factory - replace to better shocks would help too.The ride is a little rougher but my biggest concern is having no sidewall on the fronts (be very careful!) and having to run around 40psi does nothing to help ride comfort.
