[QUOTE="Dusten, post: 11370891, member: 38972"] Wheel size has nothing to do with it, its all in the tire size. Example, a 295/45/18(stock size) is 28.5" tall and has a circumference of 89.4". This means in 1 mile the tire rotates 709 times. to get a 22" wheel to rotate the same you would need a tire that is 235/35/22. I am curious what your 22's are for tire size? From what you say your speedo reads your 22's have a tire that is 5.5% smaller or 84.5" in circumference/26.9" in diameter Which as far as 22's go is tiny, so I think something is off with how your calculating speed. An example that shows your flaw is my 18's were stock on my powerstroke, i lifted it and went to 17's to run the 37's i wanted. Did my speedo read off? yes. did it have anything to do with my wheels? No. [/QUOTE]
