2010 Liberty-stock tire size 225/75R16.If I go to 245/70R16 will it make enough difference that I will need to get anything reset?It's my understanding that this size is approx. a half in. taller and wider. :?:

No, I went from 225/75-16's to 245/70-16's with no issues...the difference in overall tire height is less than 1/2"... if the speedometer says your going 60mph, you're really going about 62mph

play around with this - http://www.miata.net/garage/tirecalc.html

Haven't noticed a difference and haven't gotten a ticket since I've upgraded so I'd say you're in the clear :wink:
