great camera work!....good runs stock.....what tires you running?

Thanks my buddy filmed for me. He also has a SHO but never runs it. I have Continental extreme contact dws 06 265/35/20's at all 4 corners. Tires are nothing short of awesome

Intersting, that is a short tire.  What made you decide to go with that size, it is not one I have heard mentioned before as one to run on a SHO.
Stock is 245/45-20 (28.7"diamater) your tires are 1.4" smaller in diameter.
I bought the car CPO roughly a month ago and it had these tires on it and they were brand new. I didn't have the heart to take $1200 in tires off the car. Personally I would not have gone to a 35 series tire. Especially with New England roads and pot holes and having the PP with no spare. My speedo is off roughly 5mph at 80 but I can deal with it. Im currently trying to figure out how to change it on my SCT BDX and cant figure it out.
The good news though is that your speedo reads fast.  That will help keep you out of trouble with the local Constable.

That is a great tire for sure, I would wear them out too before replacing!

The bad news is that it means you put 5 more miles on the odometer every 80 miles, so in 1000 miles you put 62.5 miles extra on the car. 10k miles you put 625 extra, etc. etc. I would get it fixed ASAP

Once I figure it out on my SCT I will change it. I have some work to do this weekend on the car. Plugs, tstat, 3 bar map and load my tunes from torrie. Once I get into that I'll try to figure out how to change tire diameter.

It may be something Torrie can do easily for you on your next revision when you send him in your 1st datalog.  I have not looked into doing it via the handheld.

My dad said its was very simple on his SCT X4. Like I said ive only datalogged 2 runs for Torrie and that was it with the REV-X. And as that is I cant even figure out how to get those out of it lol. Can you tell this is my first use of an SCT.
