You will show more miles with smaller Dia. tires.
I did read somewhere that the dealer can adjust the speedo to the new tire size. BUT I do not know if that is true !
Someone here should come up with that answer.

BTW I like the look of smaller rims (more retro looking) I don't like the low profile look that is why I changed tires.
To me nice after market 18" rims with 50 or 55 profile tires would be the best looking & a little softer ride.. But I don't like the GM 18" alum. rims. ...Thats just MY opinion.
