The answer you are looking for is if the tires maintain the same overall diameter then your speedo won't be messed up. In other words if you run a stock tires from an SS on your V6 then it won't. If you try and stuff a taller or shorter tire then yes, you can throw off the speedo slightly.

hey if anyone else wants to know exactly, our big o tires extranet has a dimension calculator that gives everything, even what speed youre going at certain speedo readings.

i know that a 245/50/16 and a 275/40/17 are nearly identical, as is a 315/35/17, and a 275/35/18. which are all, conveniently, vette replica sizes.
