Message	But your math is right. 245/40-18 and 275/35-18 is ~ 1" taller than stock and that's what I run. It will make your speedo read ~ 4-5% too low, so you gotta watch your speed. But other than that it won't affect much. I don't really notice a signifcant difference WRT to acceleration. Z-Jay 93 300ZX TT - Stage VI
