TYRE DIAMETER AND SIZE QUESTIONS??? Re speedo calibration

<< < (2/6) > >>

Chromie:
hi cam the formula is
63360 X axle ratio
-----------------------[divided by]
3141.6 X tyre diameter in inches
the figure you get for that is then times by 8.  This gives ya the number of teeth needed on the speedo driven gear.  
Ok Cam;53

Chromie:
Various tyres even though have the same tyre sixe actually can be quite different in height;50
I found that out the hard way;48
when I set a Corvette up with Comp T/A and then fitted yokohama
Bloody different by almost 1"
