So will these tires alter my speedo?

my speedometer is 4-6 mph off depending on the speed with my 245/75R16s

Dang! I'll have to use a GPS and see how bad mine is now.

Well looks like the fuel economy went from 17mpg (pre lift) to 14mpg (after lift) :banghead:

. So I contacted All J Products to see if they would send me a check to reimburse me every time a fill up now.

I love that seriously made me laugh!
Yeah the loss in mpg is worth it though.
My speedo is off by maybe 3-4.
The fiance says she loves the way the ride feels now and the added ground clearance is better for running over animals.
Also I don't have to pay for parking downtown anymore because my lift made it to where I can drive over the concrete divider between the in and out.

Love that KJ!

My speedo is only off by 1 or 2 mph.

TAHOE installed my Frankenlift II Baja kit today. Although I do have to say I did install the bumpstops (after he drilled the holes) :lol:

After a few hours of searching for a sensor and getting the passenger ball joint to seat in place, it was finished!

So far it has performed like a champion, with some minor squeaks and creaking. Bob Sumerel installed the 245 75 r 16s and aligned it while I grubbed on some City Barbeque. Netted 4.5" of lift before it settles.

I would like to thank TAHOE x1000 for his endless generosity and knowledge.

It feels nice to sit higher than 95% of Jeeps on the road :wink:

Thanks again!
