I'll take a few members for a ride on the street so they can vouch for me, it's still not slow. The only thing that might be a variable is if Nitto's numbers are wrong and their tire revolutions per mile are off a little, but I doubt thats the case. If it is then I'm reading slower or faster than I'm really going (if anything it's too low of a number so I should be running faster which would equal a quicker 0-60).
Do the roll measurement method to get an accurate reading on tire size. Weight of vehicle, air pressure, all effect the measurement.

Most people show a different number than the tire company state.

Instructions from EDGE manual:


The following table will help you determine your tire circumference by matching your tire size with the common sizes listed. For example, if your tire size is 285/ 65-18, the value (circumference) you enter into the Evolution is 2600. You may also use the formula provided to determine your approximate tire circumference. Finally, you may also measure your tire’s circumference by marking your tire and rolling it one complete revolution and measuring the distance in inches or millimeters. If you measure in inches, multiply the distance by 25.4 to convert to mm. (ex. 91.3 inches x 25.4 = 2319 mm). The range of change is from 2000mm to 3500mm in increments of 1mm.
Width Ratio Rim Circumference Tire Size
265 70 16 2441mm 33 2632mm
275 70 16 2485mm 35 2792mm
305 70 16 2617mm 37 2951mm
215 75 16 2289mm 38 3031mm
245 75 16 2430mm
265 75 16 2524mm Circumference Equation:
285 75 16 2618mm [(width * ratio * 0.02) + (rim * 25.4)] * 3.1415
295 75 16 2666mm Steps:
305 75 16 2713mm 1. Multiply Width, Ratio and 0.02
315 75 16 2760mm 2. Multiply Rim and 25.4
325 75 16 2807mm 3. Add Step #1 with Step #2
265 70 17 2521mm 4. Multiply Step #3 with 3.1416
285 75 17 2698mm 5. The result will be the circumference of your tire in mm.
315 75 17 2840mm
275 65 18 2559mm
285 65 18 2600mm
285 60 18 2510mm
325 60 18 2660mm

Thanks for the help but that’s not the problem....I calculated my "actual size" a 295-70R17 and it was 2659 or something and it was way off from actual...I posted on this earlier....I took the mph percentage off and changed the tire size by the same percentage....my Cir now is 2539, which is verified to be correct, because my edge speed matches my GPS speed....But what i was saying is i am still going to do the rollout... to double check....Everyone seems to think my 0-60 is slow.....actually i just read a article in a off road magazine...forgot the name, they put roush supercharger on an 05 truck with 20's 34's and 4.10 gears and it only ran a 7.6, they also had a detroit LS, and it was a SCAB, i figure since i am a screw at 8.9 i am not to bad off...That’s why I am not sure about these edge 0-60 readings, i want another way to calculate it....to verify accuracy...BTw that article had a CST lifted f150 on the cover if anyone has it...this months issue....

I think your times are probably correct. Some of the times posted have me wondering also.

Well if anyone wants to witness my 0-60 times feel free to take a ride in my truck anytime, just let me know when and where. But your times arent way off, it is a heavier truck, with larger tires somewhat. THe thing that has me scratching my head is the fact that you have 4.56 gears right? If I had 4.56 gears I would think that I could get into the low 6 second range 0-60. Stock I was at 8.4-8.5, edge only I was at 7.2-7.4, and with the edge/intake/exhaust I am at 6.8-6.9 seconds.

Well there we go, what level are you running? Thats why, I've seen 1 second gains by switching to level 3. Thats still pretty ****ty for your mods if you ask me (no offense).

You Have To Pay To Play

I think it is so funny to hear people say they dont want to run level 3 due to the cost of 91 gas. We are talking about $5 more per tank. But you have more power so you dont have to get on the gas as long to achieve the same speed as you did with level 2.
