    He's going from 22.7 inch tire to a proper 24.9 inch tire. Jesus guys this isn't fucking rocket science. Close the thread.

    I still don't get it, or I must be misunderstanding something.

    So you only have to raise the car because a) you have wider wheels/tires or lower offset thus you need to raise to avoid rubbing on fenders or b) your tires were undersized before. Because otherwise:

    I had 195/50's before on a 15" wheel
    I now have 225/50's

    If you went from 195/60/15 to 225/50/16 then it's only gonna be about 2 mph difference at 65.
    use the calculator..
    225/50-R16 tires are 0.65 inches (16.4 mm) larger in diameter than 195/60-R15 tires and the speedometer difference is 2.6%
