Soo guys i'm selling the 240 and modding the G again, and i needed a little help. I'm lookin at some wheels for the G, they're 19x9 -4 and 19x11 +1. Not really sure how flush they'll be but the tires on them are 225/35 and 265/30. The tires should be small enough so i can slam my car with no rubbing issues but is the 30 series tire gonna throw off my speedo? I have a bit of a speeding problem so every mph it's off counts -____-

if you consider 245/40/19 as stock rear tire size - 26.7" diameter then a 265/30 with be a 25.3" diameter (and frankly even less because it will be stretched). This throws your speedo off by at least 5.3%. So at 60mph your reading 56.8mph. But in actuality I imagine it will be 6-7+% off so 60 = 55-56mph.

Wheel size calculator, make friends with it if you're going to run around all hellawhatever

Yeah, but it will not look like that when im done, too many vents for me. But i wanna see how it looks on a G first before i make my final decision. If worst comes to worst i can always sell it if it doesn't turn out the way im imagining. Thanks also. I just kinda wanna change it up a lil so we'll see...
