Calculations on Speedo
So I was kind of wondering what I am doing, I changed my tires from the 245 75 16 x tires to 33 11.5 16 nitto muds and was wondering if I am going faster then what the speedo says and the mpg says 13.5 is it more or less how exactly do you go about this thanks.
There are calculators floating around online, search around and you'll find them.
Or
Take it in to the dealer and pay them to reprogram for the taller tires (I believe 32's are the tallest they can do? But it'll get you closer)
Or
Buy yourself a programmer. AEV ProCal is the cheapest at about $130, but has a ton of functions for the money. There are several more expensive programmers available, that also have peformance mods included. Check them all out before considering the dealer...

The dealer can only reprogram you up to a 32" tire.
The 245/75R16 tires are a 30.5" tire. So if you now have 33" tires, they are 8.2% larger.
Therefore your speedo will be low by 8.2%. If your speedometer says 50, you are actually going 54.1 mph.
