Hey all,
Ive currently got 13in ( )rims on my Rolla atm.. and a mate will be selling his CSX model and we are goin to do a swap...
His are 14in... Would i need to change the adjust the speedo the match the bigger wheels or is the speed measured of the gearbox.. ( ive been told both those are possible... )
Any help will be greatly appreciated...
Thanks all
Karlos

I'm not sure where the speedo is driven from on front wheel drive rolla's but any change in tyre diameter will put your speedo out, so if you put on bigger wheels just make sure that the rubber is the right profile to keep the overall diameter the same.

hey karl.
doesnt matter where the speedo goes, bigger wheels= more speed.
i went from 13's to 14's but the profile of the tires on the 14's were smaller than on the 13's so the tire diameter ended up being the same. so check what tires are on the 14's!
