tire size problem
tire size problem
hi all im new to this forum.
I have an 03 f150 that came with p275/60/17
I changed them to svt lightning rims and tires which are p295/45/18
My pcm was reflashed to the "closest" tire size ford could find.
Needless to say the speedo is way out and my odometer is gathering miles to fast.
My question is-Is there a tire in 18" that is the same circumfrence as the p265/60/r17???
Any help would be apreciated.
Also my truck is a 2 wheel drive. Can I not put larger tires on the back only?
Thanks---Joe

I see two options. Go to some of the tire manufacturer's websites and find a tire the same height as your OEM tires or buy an aftermarket computer tuner (Superchips, Hypertech, etc) and recalibrate your speedometer/odometer with the tires you have.
