Default Paging Lex luthor

What's going on bro?? Got question. Need to replace both rear tires since there slick now, have couple of questions. Right now I've got 235 45's on 17X8 Momos. Want to at least go to a 255
40 on the back. What do you think?? The 255 in the Dunlop SP8000 is 25.0 in diameter, where I'm running the 235 at 25.4.
Any real speedo problems you think?? The 235's just don't look
wide enough on the back. Wanted a 265, but Dunlop doesn't make one. Ideas???

Well, someone will correct me if i'm wrong, but just off the top of my head, a .4 difference in diameter will equate to about a 5mph difference in the speedometer reading @ 60mph, whether or not that's tolerable is strictly up to you, hope the wife and Lex are well.
