Changing Wheels Question

I am getting ready to swap the 17" rims and tires that came on my 05 GT with a set of 18" factory chrome bullets and tires. Question is will it throw my speedo off or cause problems with the automatic tranny?

Not if you keep the overall tire diameter relatively close.

Keep the overall tire diameter within 3% of what you had on the car, and you'll be fine.
