whats the difference in daily driving with the wide rear wheels? is there really a difference, it kind of throws off the speedo a little correct? any pros vs. cons on that set-up?

If you feel much of a difference, then your butt-o-meter is very well calibrated. It most certainly isn't like "wow...feels totally different" Stock cars engine wise that had 16 x 8 wheels might feel a little more sluggish at first since the bigger wheels and tires way more, but to be honest, I didn't feel any difference.

The speedo will not be off at all as long as you stay with the same overall tire diameter as the stock tires. The stock size of 245/50/16 has an overall diameter of 25.6", and the compatible bigger sizes are 275/40/17 and 315/35/17, as well as some other compatible sizes in 18" and higher. As long as the tire diameter stays the same, which is achieved by compensating for a larger wheel by having a smaller tire sidewall, the speedo will be fine.

and if the overall tire diameter is different, just go to your "local tuner" or find someone with LS1edit, HP tuners or any of those...hell even those hypertech power programmers can fix tire size differences to fix your speedo. only takes a few minutes, unless you have a '98 which takes like 10 to flash
