Default Pics of my new tires and wheels...

Finally had my new tires and wheels put on a couple days ago. Just now getting time to post up some pics. For some reason couldnt put the pics in here, so make sure to check my profile for pics....enjoy. I got the Kumho XS 315/35/17. And the wheels are deep dish bullitts 17x10.5 in the rear, keeping stock bullitts up front on Kumho 275. BTW thanks guys for convincing me to go with the 315's, they hook very well and look beastly.

Yeah the deep dish really adds a lot to the back of the car. I know its been done, but it looks great on this car.

Cool cool. I actually think I lost a mile or 2 a gallon since the tires have been put on, but I wasnt getting good mileage before with the blower so it doesnt bother me. Thanks for the help.

don't you need to recalibrate the speedometer/odometer??? i noticed when i put bigger tires on my car they were off by a little bit and turned the same mileage results you are describing.... of course i had to try out the new rubber too

you wont have to recalibrate as long as the tire+rim hieght remains the same. if you go with taller tires or rims then you will have to recalibrate.

Yeah may be why I was getting worse mileage cuz I was trying it out haha. They said it shouldnt throw the speedometer off, and the reading seems right from what I can tell. Did you change the tire height on yours?

yes, ever so slightly.... it wasn't by much but it was by some i can't remember exactly.... been too long.... if its not too much of a hassle you could get whoever did your tune to reprogram the tire size in, or if you did it yourself??? but i wouldn't worry too much about it unless its killing your odometer, or bugging you real bad of course
