getting bigger rims = odometer/speedometer changes?
hey guys, i just wanted to get a couple things straight...my yaris came with the 15" steel wheels, and I am thinking about replacing them for 17" rims. however, if I do install 17" rims, doesnt that mean that my speedometer will be reading slower than my actual speed, and my odometer be less than my actual distance traveled?
if this is true, is there any way to recalibrate these meters to reflect the new change in wheel diameter? does anybody have experience with this? since i have 15" wheels, i can replace them for 15" rims without having to worry about the odo/speedo issues, right? last question...lowering your car doesnt have any affect on odo/speedo, or fuel economy, right? id appreciate any quetsions you can answer! thank you! |
