I have the same tyres/rims as you, my speedo is out 4km.h, at 140, so at 100, it would be bugger all.

As long as you maintain the same overall diametre the speedo should remain the same. Remembering that all speedos vary slightly from a new tyre to a worn tyre.

Frank, Frank, Frank - Sober up and have a think about it mate. Say if you double your rolling distance would you agree that at when your dash reads 10km/h your really doing 20km/h? By your theory when the dash reads 100km/h we would only be doing 110km/h...lol (with monster truck tyres!!!) |

Its relative to the width & profile of the tyre you put on it. Have a play with the tyre size calculator link that voxace provided. If I put 235/45/17 instead of my standard 205/65/15 my speedo will be out by .6% (reading slightly faster than actual)

i It will be out by a fixed percentage, not a fixed km/h value. |
