Ive decided to go with the Riken Raptors 255/50r17's how off will my speedo be?
Does anyone have any pictures of this size tire without a drop? I havent decided how low i want to go yet and want to see how goofy it will look.

I'm running the Rikens in that size and love 'em, great tire. I forget exactly how much the speedo is off, but I think it's around 3mph at 60, not huge. If you go to www.dakota-truck.net, there's a tire/wheel calculator on there that will tell you exactly how much it'll be off.

I don't have any pictures without the drop, but my sig pic is with the Rikens and the Hotchkis TVS, which is supposed to be about a 2/3 drop.

I think www.tire-savings.com has them for around $85. www.tires-easy.com usually has good prices on 'em too. You should be able to find them for less than $90 per tire.
