They're based on the axle rato, transmission/transfer-case, and tire size.
IIRC you can change out that gear on the vehicle speed... thing. To adjust for tire size. Then your cable will tell the speedo the correct speed.

Also, anyone got any pics of other tire sizes on the stock 15" rally wheels? Minus all the off-roading tires. Just street tires. I wouldn't mind seeing some pics so I could choose the tires which look the best imo.

185 to 235 seems like a nice gap. Maybe 225 or 215 would look good.
