tire size change issue

Post by greatwhite57 »

I changed my tire size on 2005 dodge ram 1500 with my trinity and its still 5 mph slower than I actually am going. I'm running 37x13.50r18. Need help before I get a speeding ticket

have you tried measuring the tire from the ground up with a tape measure? Sometimes, a 37 inch tire is only about 35 or 35.5 inches tall.

But if the tire is only 35.5 inches tall, then your metric size conversion would still be incorrect. Measure the tire to see what its actual height is.
