Question: How did you determine what tire diameter to enter?
I've got BFG Mud Terrain T/A KM2s, size 35x12.50R17LT. I just took a rolling measurement on my driveway and the diameter I calculated for the tire is 33.53in. I also saw a spec online for the tire that stated the diameter is 34.8in.

Maybe the manual is clear on what to do here.
The manual shows taking a measurement from the ground to the top of your tire with a tape or yard stick then rounding up to the nearest 1/4" .

1. The sizes shown are average design values for tires measured on specified measuring rim widths. Some tires may vary from this value by +/-3% of the section height (affecting overall diameter), and +/-4% of the section width.
2. Section width varies approximately 0.2" (5mm) for every 0.5" change in rim width.

The best thing to do is to put the exact gear ratio in and then a close guess on the tire size with a bias towards a little smaller (for instance 34.5 for 35). Then take it up on the freeway with a GPS. Then chnge the tire size by small increments (up or doen as needed) until the speedo and GPS agree. If I recall correctly if you speedo says you're going faster than the GPS plug in a smaller tire size and if the speedo says you're going slower than the GPS plug in a larger tire size.

Hi Guys,

I did a little research, and I found two interesting things worth discussion. They're not my results, just what I found.
