Question Tire Change

my 97 4x4 s-10 used to have doughnut 235/75r15's on it. I put a 2 inch body lift and 31"x10.50 on it to match. how much would this have messed my odometer/speedometer reading up? also can I crank the torsion bars to lift the front a couple more inches to level it off?

Re: Tire Change

The torsion bars are good for about an inch. It will make it ride more rigid tho.

Your speedo is probably off like this. When your speedo says your doing 40, your probably actually doing between 44-46 mph.
