Those with large rims-speedo question??
i just got a 90GT and it has 18" saleen rims and i noticed that the speedometer is off. ive seen how you can buy different speedometer gears if you have different gears out back, but what if it just rims thats throwing it off?
Thanks

you can use a different speedo gear to correct it as well. But it will be hit or miss on how close you get to the actual speed.
