silvermate Posted February 18, 2004 Share Posted February 18, 2004 Hey guys. i recently put 16 inch 99LS rims on my 92LS which had 15's. my question is with the bigger wheels how off is the speedometer going to be, and lastly how much will these bigger wheels effect my calculation of gas mileage? i know its not going to effect the actual gas mileage but just figuring out how many miles i get to the gallon, ie....the trip odemeter, + or - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
