Consumer Description

I INSTALLED A LIFT KIT AND BIGGER TIRES. KNOWING THAT MY SPEEDOMETER WOULD BE OFF, I HAD A SHOP CHECK IT OUT FOR ME AND FOUND THAT WITH THE LARGER TIRES, THE SPEEDOMETER WAS ALMOST PERFECTLY MATCHED TO REAL SPEED (NEW TIRE SIZE 31X10.5X15) THIS MEANS THAT THE ORGINAL SETUP FROM THE FACTORY WAS OFF, THEREFORE INCREASING THE MILAGE SHOWN ON MY ODOMETER, WHICH HAS DECREASED THE VALUE OF THE VEHICLE, AS WELL A, MAKING THE WARRANTY END AT A SOONER DATE. *AK
