What size will i need?
As you guys know i go myself a set of GXP wheels for my car but now i need to know what size rubber i will need to prechase for them because i know from my old test fit i did last year the stock GXP tire size is to tall and would through off my speedo. So what do i need?
my current tires; 225/60R16 GXP tire size; 235/50R18 I would also like to know what tires you guys would recomend, I am a very aggressive driver and i like to drive fast (never hit my limiter but i would like to (128mph)) |
your speedo will be off no matter what.

those were just for referance so you know what sizes are on both factory rim, i need to know what size tire i will need to get accurate readings on the speedo, i know the number i put there wouldnt be what i needed :roll: |

ok..... if you go with a
225/50/18 you speedo will be .5 slower 235/50/15 your speedo will read 1.4 mph slower that is the closest you can get....i would not recommend the 225 tho because they will not look right on the rim....a 1.4 mph is nothing to be worried about |
OK.....I'm running 225/45/18, and u could go a bit taller and
i would suggest too because of my rim issues!! |
