1st post - NEW Purchase

BACKN68 -> 1st post - NEW Purchase (11/29/2007 12:37:49 AM)
Looking to make a purchase this Friday on a '08 Alpha H3. At my request, the dealer is "swapping out" the stock 32" tires/rims, for a set of stock 33" tires/rims off of an ADVENTURE PKG equipped '08. My question is: won't this affect the speedo calibration and the accuracy of the odometer ? My salesman (sales manager) says "NO". Would like some input before I purchase. Thank you for your time. Kent

if it does,i doubt it will be enough to get you in trouble

Not much. Do the mathmatical calculation and you will find that when your speedo shows 70mph, your actual speed will be appx 72. Not a significant problem IMO? The math: Actual Speed = new tire diameter x indicated speed Old tire diameter 72.1875mph = 33" x 70mph 32"

or you can do the PCM mod, right?

Doc Olds -> RE: 1st post - NEW Purchase (11/29/2007 2:15:35 PM)
I do not think anybody is doing the PCM for tha Alpha H3, yet? Patches had a thread about that, but the PCM could be changed to reflect your tire diameter change. So technically MuddyD, the answer is Yes.....[8\|] When available or if you HP tune yourself. [:D]
