anyone know a chart i could look at to figure how off my speedo is.
car came with 225 75 r15's and 3.27s
Now i have 4.10's with a set of 33's and 35's
Thanks
Jeff
With you're 35s you're actually almost exactly at the stock gear ratio so your speedo will be the same as stock. With the 33s, you're speedo is gonna be about 5% more off than stock, your speedo will read too high. To solve this you could get a speedo gear with one more tooth than your current one.
Jeff, thanks for asking that question, and Alec, thanks for the answer.:D

keep in mind that this is gonna be different for every gear and tire combo, and depends on what was stock.
I am also going to 35's, and currently have 3.27 gears, so I will bw following Jeff in getting 4.10's as well.
IMO 4.56 would be a better choice. You can always change your speedo gear to compensate.
i was thinking that, would you just go to a higher gear, if there was one, I think mine may be the highest now, or would you go to like a 3.55 speedo gear.
The speedo gears have anywhere from 16-21+ teeth. With 4.56s, you'd need one with I think 2 more teeth than your current one. No telling what your current one is until you look at it.
Thanks, I know that the one for a 3.73 is 19 teeth, so if I go up 2 to a 21 tooth for the 3.55, figuring that mine is probably a 23 tooth gear for the 3.27's:confused: Another issue to work on.
no, you probably have a 16 or 17 tooth gear.
Hmm,
Tomarrow I will find out.
