Tire Size Calculator

[PXLpainter]

I didn't find this previously listed using the Search - but here's a helpful tire size calculator I ran across while "daydreaming" today:

Stock tire dia. is 26.31" so to keep the speedo in check that's the target - and unless you're going 10" wide, anything that dia or under shouldn't be a rub prob.

Thats great to know, but I have a follow up question. Let's say that you do go with larger tires (or smaller). Is there a way to recalibrate your speedometer to match?

Yes. Places such as Precision Tune will take care of that for you. The only thing about the tire size calculators that you gotta watch out for is that many of the widths won't work on our cars (too wide). Anything outside of 235mm is pushing it.

Wow - very good link to that thread - thanks!

That didn't show up when I did a search for Tire Size Calculator - but I like the techno description and the list at the end.

Shouldn't that be a Sticky or in the FAQs?

It's in the tutorials for both Gen 1 and Gen 2. I decided to compose that a while ago because of all the misunderstanding that was going on at that time (everyone had clashing "opinions" of what tire sizes stood for, and what was ok for their vehicles).

Glad you can get something out of it
