    Default Adjust for tire size

    I was able to adjust the tire size on my co-workers' '06 Silverado by following the EFILive tutorial. It corrected the speedo and the odometer, and eliminated the ABS light. I went to "Speedometer", clicked on "Parameters" and entered the values. It worked.

    Now I need to adjust my '06 LBZ 2500HD for the new 285/75/16 tires I'm running. When I go to "Speedometer" and "Parameters" the table that asks you for tire dimensions doesn't pop up. There are just 4 parameters displayed on the right, starting with "Tire Revolutions per Kilometer". Can someone point me in the right direction? Thanks.

    I want to know this too, there has to be some way to calculate it as the LL8 has the same issue, there is no integrated tire calculator like the LSx engines.

    As an example, a Bridgestone Dueler REVO in your size will do 630 revs per mile. Divide that by 1.609 any you got revs per km.

    So are you saying that by entering that value somewhere in the Tune, we can correct the speedo?

    Yes....but not somewhere. You need to enter it in H0136 !
    I have not tried it as I don't have a LBZ or LMM but that is the only option you got right now!

    An all new speedo calculator is included in the next release. It should be available (pre-release) this week.

    Does that mean that I the calculator that pops up for the LS1 Camaros and the 5.3 Silverados will pop up on an '06 SSR? I really need to adjust the speedo for 4.56 gears. Will I be able to do that as soon as I download the new version this week?
