Anybody know if you should recalibrate (reset) your speedo when u upgrade the tire/rim sizes? i went from 15's to 17's. Think it would be a good idea? and how would i do it (or just take it in??) Thanks guys

As long as you got a thinner tire with your 17's (proportional to your rim size increase) the final wheel size should be nearly the same and you shouldn't need speedometer calibration.

^^ correct. the perfect (close to perfect) match from stock would be a 205/40/17. rim size isn't all that matters...its the tire on the rim.

what size tire do you have?
