The 295/35 is a little taller so the speedo does get off, but reads approximately 1 mph slow when you are going 55 mph. No biggie in my eyes.

Xsta,
I noticed in your sig that you have custom cut SLP Eibach Springs? How were they cut? I am wondering because you car is sitting just right. I have some 18's on order and I did not want to go "too low" when I get springs?

Thanks,
Ulysses
