Crossover capacitors? bipolar stuff?  I'm a mailorder guy mostly. I suppose SAYAL  ( multiple locations) might have such. Dunno much is left in the DIY audio world. Madisound and Parts Express in the US, SOLEN in Montreal. Suspect all those electronics shops on Queen street have been forced out by yuppie rents

I would think you are right if you have a 10% larger tire but shift the diff gears by 10% this should be neutral?

The 2.5volts is GM telling a tech what he might measure with his voltmeter when it is really a frequency around 100-300Hz. Different voltmeters may vary a bit. If you said you plugged in a stock MAF and got the same 5V  then it looks like maybe a wiring problem the 5v MAF supply is connected to the MAF signal.

They should fit.  I have 12" brakes on the front and they fit with 16" wheels.

Interesting,  I wonder what the maximum diameter is to fit under the 15 inchers

And make sure it's IN STOCK. If it isn't...go elsewhere. You've been warned.
