From 16's to 17's. Quick question.

I now have 245 50 16's. I'm getting some 275 40 17's tomorrow. Will my speedo and mileage need to be re-calibrated for it to be correct ???

speedo will read just 1% too slow, no calibration necessary what-so-ever

thats because it's only 1% ! or equivalent to you speedo reading 99mph when you're actually doing 100mph, well within speedo tolerances anyway
