Hey guys, I'm in a pretty desperate situation and I was wondering if it would be ok to run smaller wheels in the front and the stock ones in the rear? The wheels are only an inch less than stock in diameter and they are about 1/2 inch wider. This would be for 2, maybe 3 months max. I really need to know soon guys!
Thanks! |

QUOTE and it can effect your RPM just so you know....14" enkies i redline at stock factory red line 18s i redline before that by 400 rmp but that is just the RMP gauge off.....i really am at factory redline but because of the wheels it reads lower I know speed, odometer and drive ratios are affected by tire size. However, I was under the impression that the RPM guage is metered off the engine, not the wheels. -------------------- QUOTE(lagos @ Jul 10, 2006 - 1:55 PM) [snapback]454118[/snapback] i know your trying to do the right thing for your motor, but this is one of those times where you should just trust the guys who have had their swaps for a while and have done a ton of research into this. |
