G"day,
I know there are heaps of fellas out there that have upgraded their stock 15 inch alloys to larger 16 or 17 inch alloys. When you guys put them on, did it screw with the speedo reading and if so, how can you fix it to get the proper reading?

You put lower profile tyres on the larger rims, if you keep the overall diamter roughly the same as stock, your speedo stays more or less accurate.

However I do believe you can change the speedo gears to correct the problem if need be, read on some site some where, will try find the link.
