tune vs taller tire I was wondering if the car was tuned for stock size tires and I bumped up to 28" tall tires for the track, how will this affect the tune? I will only be running the 28" tall tires when I spray the car. The car sits at 11.3:1 AFR when I am on the nitrous.
The car is cam only with a 100 shot on top of it. the gears are 4.30s so I need a little help on the top end to not shift into 5th gear. I am only spraying to 6500 RPMs.
Thanks for all your help

I think it would be fine since it's an M6. Obviously the speedo is off but other than that I can't see where it will change anything. If it were an A4 there would be some issues.

only thing I was worried about is it being a different load on the motor for the RPM since the effective gear ratio would be less(numerically lower).
