I recently purchased 300ZX wheels, and was debating on what size tire to put on. With 225/50R16's the overall diameter will be 24.8" (stock is 25.1"). This is going to throw off the speedometer and odometer. Does anyone know how to fix this? I would like to get the extra width (as opposed to the 215/55R16's), but I want my speedo to be reading right, and not putting on more miles than I actually am. Thx...
