ahhh....but he DID change the height. It'* a ratio. If you change the width, you MUST change the 60/50 ratio to keep the rolling diameter as close as possible.

He changed it, but not by much.

True, but at the same time is 1 mph really anyhting to worry about...?? So are you trying to say that he has a rolling ratio simmilar to say 59 instead of 60 series, because he went to a wider tire.. I could understand if he went from a 65 series tire to a 60 series tire... Then there would be some speedo issues... But as far as going to a wider tire 225 vs the 215... he really has nothing to worry about... In the same as long as you stick with the 60 series 16 inch, 225 or 235... the change won't be anything to worry about..but i'm sure a 50 series or 40 series would cause problems...

Aspect ratio changes the wider you go.....My 225/60/16'* mean that my sidewall is 60% of the 225. His sidewall height is now 60% of 225, which means it'* slightly taller than if it were 60% of 215.

Use the calculator Jay found. That'* what I used last night. Techinfo, Tech Know-how. There'* actually a bunch of these floating around cyberspace.

Shame on you. You're supposed to KNOW what'* up there!
