What would cause the odometer to move faster than the distance you are travelling?

How much are we talking when you say 'faster'? Have you checked over a known distance of 10-20 miles?
Stock 'upgrade' was 185/70-15, so your tires are a little bit smaller in diameter. That means you don't actually go as far for a given number of revolutions, but since the odometer is geared based on revolutions of the cable, it will read 'high'. |
