The "Will it fit?" thread

If I get wider tires and bigger wheels, will it throw off my speedo? If yes, where would I take it to get the speedo corrected? I didn't read this

all depends on the overall tire size you get.

You could go wider, with a smaller sidewall ratio which could make the overaly wheel+tire height the same as the OEM, in which case the speedo is the same.

Unless you get something completely wrong, your speedo wouldnt be off by more than +- 3% which isnt that big of a deal.
