I have gone up one tire size on my 96 5sp. The dealer told me that only the
output gear might need to be changed. They said only with the auto that the
CAB need to be reprogrammed that would bring in the shifting and speedo in
specs, but the 5 speed did not have one. Nothing was said about the ABS and
I have found no ill effects with anything and the speedo seems to be ok
without the gear changed but that is just going down the highway gauging
with another vehicle, not really accurate and been just to lazy to replace
the gear.
