What have you done to your P5 today?

[Salmon_Rob]

pretty sure its a gear driven thing. according to every tire calculator thing ive done, 215/40/17 is the closest to stock for speedo etc

Yeah that's true. I was just curious why the speed vs. RPM ratio changed when I put the MSP cluster in. Either way, I think 215/45's are only like 1% off or something - like 61 mph when indicated 60 mph.

New windshield - yay! I now have a tinted line across the top too so no more sun blindness!

ya, me too! just got a new one a couple of weeks ago and it was the first thing i noticed...i like it!

dammit lol. i was comparing using my 205s as a basis. 215/45 is actually the better size to have based on our stock tire size-
215/45-
Speedometer Difference: 0.698% too slow
215/40-
Speedometer Difference: 2.820% too fast

Hmm, I always thought the 215/40 was damn near a perfect match. Either way, 40 series is just too small for me now. My next set is going to either be 215/45R16 or 214/45R17 (slightly larger). I might even try some 225/45's too (beer)

[magnumP5]

Yep, but you have to admit - 225/45R17's with some RPF1's would be awesome.

 

[aMaff]

mmmm feels so gewd!










(eek2)

 

[Salmon_Rob]

[Salmon_Rob]

mmmm feels so gewd!










(eek2)

[aMaff]

[Salmon_Rob]
