Wheel Size Change Recalibration Requirement
#1
#2
Since you want to keep the outer circumference of the tire the same size,
you don't need to get your ECU or speedo, etc. re-caliberated. :smile:
The wheel diameter might be larger, but the tire sidewall has less
profile, so the circumference stays basically the same.
a few examples:
Tirewidth (mm) / profile (% of tirewidth) <-sidewall width
195/55 tire size for 16"
205/50 tire size for 16"
205/45 tire size for 17"
215/40 tire size for 17"
and so on.
:smile:
