Saw a truck around town today with a ridiculous lift kit and chunky off-road tires that were clearly much larger than factory standard, and it got me thinking; if you install this kind of modification in a car, do you need to adjust the speedometer to compensate? What about the odometer?
My logic is the only absolute measurement the car has is how fast the wheels and drive shaft are turning, so presumably there is some sort of multiplier - 1 revolution = X meters - that is then used to show speed and track distance travelled, but that factor would need to change if the circumference of the tires did
I remember that show! Not that episode specifically.
If it’s the one I’m thinking of, it was called Square One.
Sorry to burst your bubble, but I’m pretty sure that’s not the one. There was no (attempt at) comedy in the one I was talking about. I kindof doubt I’d be able to find the name of the one I’m thinking about, but I might try later if I get a minute.
