QUOTE(jkeyzer @ Jan 16 2003, 11:37 PM) If I am at 3000 RPM at 65MPH with 205/60's, what will I be at with 205/55's, and what will my speedo read (assuming it was correct in the first place)? It will be 3.4% higher. (15 inch rims) Of course all tires marked the same size are not exactly the same, but this is what you have to start with. Mark S. '70 914-6 |
