Re: Best wheel size?

again, width has nothing to do with it. it's overal diameter and how far a certain given point on the tire must travel before it's at said point again. Cut a tire and lay it out flat, now cut the same size (but different aspect ratio) and lay it next to it..it's gonna look like this..

THAT's what throws off the speedo. NOT width.

That being said, i'd say widest tire you could go that will fit. Winter though, i'd say narrowest.
