How much will my speedo be off by when i got 33s

Post by NCpaj »

Well the stock tyre size is 215 R15 (i think 28''-29'')

i just put a deposit on some 33s and id like to know what the speedo should read for me to go 100km/h

also i might get some near ratios, what would bring it back to standard?

thanks heaps

i just put on 285/75 threw it out about 5/7ks at 100km/h and dose slow the car up a bit getting up to 100 but not to bad. just be aware of it try and drive next to a mate and get him to do the speedlimet and gauge it that way. just make sure its a newer stocko car. what type of tyre you getting/price? and do you have eny body lift or betta saspentin to fit them?

Very informative. Scroll down, and there is a calculator that does it all for you......Its in miles not kilometers though. But thats and easy one to work out.

Going up to 33s on my Challenger put the speedo out by about 10% - just borrow a mates GPS and check.

Cheers,
