Question: going from a frt tire that is 155/60-15 vs stock size

[Dmetcalf]

I’m changing out the front tires from the stock Kenda’s to the Kumho’s that are a slightly different size as far as height goes. My question is - will this throw off my speedometer or mess with my abs brakes ..?
Thank you for any input or opinions.

No, it won't make any difference. The ABS, VSS, EBD, etc are more than capable of handling a tiny change like that!! :thumbup:

I don't have access to my service manual at the moment so I don't know if there is a speed sensor in the transmission or not. But the sensors that are on all three wheels are used for inputs to the VSS and ABS and have no input to displaying vehicle speed. The speedometer is part of the cluster and all inputs into it are digital or voltage hi and low. Wheel speed isn't measured. That's why real speed vs speedo indicated speed goes up when the rear tire is changed to a larger diameter.

Only the rear wheel has the sensor .... and no one has had ANY issues with a different rear tire size .... So it has nothing to do with any size front tire ..... Mike :thumbup:
