Robm Member 8 Member For: 11y 2m 2d Posted 05/01/14 12:43 PM Share Posted 05/01/14 12:43 PM I am looking at going from my current 17" wheels with the recommended 235/45's, to 18's, 235/40. Can anyone who has done this let me know if/how far this put the speedo out? and which way (I'm presuming you will be going faster than the speedo shows, not good with all the cameras. The speedo reads 2km faster than I am (GPS) driving at, which is perfect and would to retain similar. Regards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robm Member 8 Member For: 11y 2m 2d Posted 07/01/14 02:22 PM Author Share Posted 07/01/14 02:22 PM Thanks guys, that chart will be very useful on all my cars in the future and knowing the comp can be adjusted is good. Too much tech-NO-logy these days. Whatever happened to the 265/14 retreads of my youth??? Widest tyre you could get in the mid-eighties, apart from a 295 or 305, but they cost way more than the $100 retread which was worn out in 3 weeks anyway - lol.

Robm Member 8 Member For: 11y 2m 2d Posted 09/01/14 10:05 AM Author Share Posted 09/01/14 10:05 AM UPDATE - 5 x 18x8" PDW C-Spec wheels bought. Will put 245/40's on when my 17's expire. Thanx for the advice. (Buy 3, get one free on all 2013 PDW's till 31 Jan. Great deal, bought 5 for less than the normal price of 4.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
