FORSCAN - Changing Tire size

[goodlettjr]

New to FORScan. Has anyone used FORScan on the 24 mustang yet and if so have you been able to change tire size?

I purchased an OBDII connector for FORScan but haven't used it before or tried to connect it yet. Bought the OBDLinkEX that FORScan recommends through Amazon.

I hooked it up and it would not recognize the car.
Ill have to check to see if there's a software update or plug in...

I have one version that should support but I didn't test it yet (version: FORScanSetup2.3.57.test20230919)
I will share link let me know if it's working

Forscan doesn't support the 2024s right now.

It should. I saw on a FB group someone updated to newest version of it and it connected to it

I saw the same post on FB. But also saw on thier site that the 2024 is not supported. I assumed possibly a few things.

1. Not officially supported but will connect to some basic things. (But don't really expect that b/c that's why the do beta releases)

2. They downloaded the beta, but if I remember the post correctly , they mentioned the software version and that wasn't the beta.

I don't have any prior experience with ForSCAN so I am waiting.

Ok, I had a few minutes and my curiosity got the best of me. Version 2.3.57 connects. It reads the BCM module. Will let you edit the tire circumference in mm. I didn't change anything. I haven't bought new tires for my new rims yet.

Has anyone had any success yet in officially editing/changing the tire circumference using Forscan?

I went from 19" tires to 20", will it let me change?

If its an OEM diameter I wouldn't worry about it.

I'm not sure I understand what you mean by "diameter"?

You only have to change the Forscan if the overall tire diameter is larger or smaller than OEM. If its less than .3" I wouldn't bother.

What @Dave2013M3 said!

As an example the OAD of my OEM Goodyear 265/35/20" all seasons is 27.3 ins.

The OAD of my Nitto 305/35/19" summer tires is 27/4 ins.

No change necessary.

Did the tire overall diameter change significantly? As others have said, that is what matters.

Plug in your old and new tire size...

Car came stock with 19" tires. I don't know anything else about them as I had them removed before I took ownership. I didn't keep them. What I put on with aftermarket rims with Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 265/35X20.
