Question Installed GT500 Take Off Overall Wheel Diameter

Well I guys I scored a set of GT500 take off rims/tires I couldn't pass up.

Got them installed, first impressions are AWESOME. First off I think they look SO much better. They fill out the wheel wells perfectly, and I feel the car rides a lot better in my opinion. Anyway my question relates to overall wheel/tire diameter. Does anyone know if I need to make any adjustments with my SCT tuner?

I tried the search, but wasn't able to find anything. Any input anyone has is greatly appreciated.

Thanks Jeff

I doubt it will be necessary if you already have adjusted for the 4.10's. What is your current tire sizes and what did you have before? This way it will help us calculated if you are really off or right on as you sit.

Well before I had the stock 17x8" wheels with 235/55ZR17's
Now I'm running 18x9.5" wheels with 255/45ZR18 in front and 285/40ZR18 in back

Damn...those GT500 takeoffs are looking better and better every time I think about them on my car...I'd miss my chrome/polished stockers though...

Great look!
