    go to a holden dealer or someone with a scantool that can program the instrument cluster with the correct PPK value.

    you shoulnt need to change anything as the overall diameter of the low profile tyre will be pretty similar to what you have now.

    here are some suggestions
    go to dealer and check ppk setting to tyre size and get programmed or go to
    Tire Size Calculator - tire & wheel plus sizing which can be handy
    or when changing diff ratio formula is
    OLDPPK/OLDRATIO=A
    A*NEWRATIO=NEWPPK
    to be programmed with tech2 from holden dealer
