this is almost funny if it wasnt so off base.....
Fact: lowering the height effects the ride. period.
So you'd rather have a crappy ride quality, instead of know that the aftermarket gauge is correct?
PS.....tire size doesnt effect the tach.......the tach measures the ENGINE.

like when your sittting at park......not moving......the tach is still correct.....right?
take the tires off, but the car on jack stands.....the tach is still correct.....right......
