Systems and method configured to limit suspension travel and wheel pivot based on detected wheel diameter

A system configured to modify limits of at least one of vehicle ride height adjustability and wheel pivot distance based on a wheel diameter, the system comprising:

• a wheel speed sensor;
• a GPS receiver;
• an adjustable ride height system configured to raise and lower a body of a vehicle;
• a steering system configured to pivot wheels of the vehicle;
• and
• a control module configured to:
• determine a wheel speed of a wheel of the vehicle based on an input from the wheel speed sensor, the wheel includes a rim with a tire thereon, the wheel diameter of the wheel is an effective rolling diameter of the wheel;
• determine a vehicle speed of the vehicle based on GPS signals received by the GPS receiver;
• compare the wheel speed and the vehicle speed, and identify a discrepancy therebetween;
• and
• when the wheel speed is less than the vehicle speed and a discrepancy between the wheel speed and the vehicle speed is equal to or greater than a predetermined threshold, reduce upward and downward adjustability limits of the adjustable ride height system and reduce a wheel pivot distance limit of the steering system.

A method configured to modify limits of at least one of vehicle ride height adjustability and wheel pivot distance based on a wheel diameter, the method comprising:

• determining by a control module a wheel speed of a wheel of a vehicle based on an input to the control module from a wheel speed sensor, the wheel includes a rim with a tire thereon, the wheel diameter of the wheel is an effective rolling diameter of the wheel;
• determining by the control module a vehicle speed of the vehicle based on GPS signals received by a GPS receiver and input to the control module;
• comparing by the control module the wheel speed and the vehicle speed, and identifying a discrepancy therebetween;
• determining by the control module a wheel diameter of the wheel based on the discrepancy;
• and
• modifying by the control module at least one of a ride height adjustability limit of an adjustable ride height system and a wheel pivot distance limit of a steering system based on the wheel diameter determined.
