So...do bigger tires throw off your speedometer/odometer?
They actually made the speedo more accurate, although its still pretty horribly inaccurate anyway. I believe a former owner re-calibrated the speedometer to his larger tires (my guess would be 33 or 35) because when I'm going like 40mph, the speedo reads like 47.
The car has obviously been lifted with big tires in the past. The front shackles have a spring mount for ~3" lift and the rear axle/spring mounting crap is set up for blocks. The rear brake pipes have been bent to accomodate a larger spare too.
