OKAY...
Looking for everyone's thoughts and input (and I am comtemplating posting this over at GMI).
I will be taking delivery this week of my Bu' however it will have the 18" wheels on it. Now being that I am up in Canada one of the things I do is put winter tires on (in the winter of course) however I have P225 60R16 winter tires and am looking at buying a set of steelie rims for them so I can just do a quick swap in the winter. (Also looking at buying Heather's rims they are 16's also).
However my past experiences tell me that when you make such a size downgrade it throws off the speedometer....Now I am getting mixed responses from people. Talked to my dealer and he talked to his "service manager" who says "Nope shouldn't make a difference" however I know a lot of guys in the racing field and they are saying it will make a difference.
What are everyone else's thoughts? I don't want to do this if ends up messing up the speedometer.
Anyone got some more detailed insight?
Thanks,
