Not for nothing, but the OP did say he wanted to put on larger tires. They would be pretty big.

Umm....where did I say that?

The tires on the front of my cart, to which the speedometer is connected are standard 8" tires that are on all Club Cars. I have no plans to change them.

The first page explains how to setup the tire size again after changing the battery. You can skip the part about how to calculate the correct tire size, just use 1440.
Thanks, that helps. I saw that site before but was a bit concerned because the pictures of the speedometer in the manual differ from mine. But I'm now thinking that they are all pretty much the same except for the outer case.

What kind of speedometers do you install and how much are they?
