Let's you put in your stock size and compare them with any other size. Also gives you speedo differences:

I will be running 235/45/17's on 17x7.5 rims on my 2G once they arrive. I race the 2G on 245/45/16's on 16 x8 rims.

My 1G runs stockish size on the road but during winter, run 3kgt rims with 225/55/16 Blizzaks. Yes I need a 5/16" spacer to run those and yes they still rub a tad on compression.
