Re: Odometer recalc with larger tires

I did a lot of odometer correction calculations, using highway mile markers and checking over 10mi runs. I came up with 7.1% correction. Tire rolling radius rarely matches sidewall size exactly, even ignoring inflation factors, but it's a fair approximation.




Eddy, you're likely far more accurate. My calcs are based on 'indicated' tire sizes versus actual tire sizes which are usually smaller and I suspect the error between actual and indicated tire size is greater the larger the tire.
