I've used several different calculators, and can't figure out what tire/wheel size AM uses for their RPM chart. According to their site I should be doing 75mph at 2243rpm, which isn't bad. But according to the fatboy calculator, I'd have to use 29.3" wheels for that which I know isn't right. Do you have any real world numbers at 2000 and 2500 rpm? I'm probably going to go staggered with 275/40-18s in the back.

With 3.55's running 235/50/18, I'm running at 65mph at 2,000rpm. My calculator pinned it to 1,992 RPM's but with the tach on there, it's hard to tell. Just call it an even 2,000rpm. 80mph will be running just shy of 2,500 RPM's for me.

For cryin' out loud 6+6, it's good to see you back on the boards again.
