    Welcome to the IHoP

    I thought they work based on the quantity of intake air well, that's how the computer knows how much gas to put in, along with rpm and maybe another factor or 2 I guess if you find the relationship between the MAF/tach signals and the amount of gas entering the engine, you can do it that way too.

    Sean, or anyone else, do you know how the BMW mpg gauges work exactly? Like do they convert the duty cycle of the injectors into gallons/hour and then divide by miles/hour to get miles/gallon? I had the thought tonight of an aftermarket, easily installable, instantaneous mpg gauge. I don't know how easy it would be to interface with the computer, but I think it's a pretty nifty idea.

    rotational inertia? unsprung weight? True, the stockers are around 35lbs so you could surely shave of another 12 going to an 18 but will add some of it back in tire weight. I also prefer a larger sidewall for traction, appearance, and ride quality reasons. On a car with little tires that is of course logical, do realize that the 300 will only be on a 45 series on 20" rims and would ride on 60 series on an 18". The sweet spot for a tire diameter like that would probably be 19". Looked up stock tire sizes for a SRT-8. 245/45/20 front and 255/45/20 rear. That's a 28.7" tire up front and a 29.0" tire out back. Those are the biggest car tires I've ever heard of. I thought mine were huge at 27". A 19" rim/29" tire would give the same amount of side wall as my Impala which is about the smallest I'd go on a newer car and it'd only look smaller in comparison to the larger rim.
