Looking for Shop in Newark, DE area to recalibrate for 33” tires


Hi,  I’m looking for a shop in the Balitimore/Philly/Wilmington DE are that would be able to adjust my computer to fix Speedo/ESP issues after I install 33”s on my 2010 G55

 Any recommendations?

 Thanks!

You will need a shop with a STAR system to change the tire size settings. Keep in mind that there are only a certain number a pre-programmed tire sizes available to select. Which ones will be a function of the year and software for your particular truck. For my G, tire sizes as large as 33" were not an option.

Thanks Floobydust.... I've seen quite a few Gs with 33s, but you raise a good point. While I've seen several G55s on larger tires, most off-road builds are G500s or G550s. My 1st challenge is finding an indy shop with the STAR system, since I read most dealers won't entertain my ask. I at least need to find out what my options are.

Can anyone recommend an indy shop in the Wilmington, DE area that has the STAR diagnostic tools

If you come to the DC area, I will do it for free...or a 12 pack of imports.

Hello - I recently bought 2013 G550 (Helga) with 33" tires and have a need to re-calibrate speedometer. Speedometer on Helga shows 4-6 mph lower than what actual speed is (indicated on GPS). I am in Vienna/Oakton area and will greatly appreciate any assistance. Thank you.
