    So with my gearing and tire size my speedo is off -10%. Basically at 65mph(actual) the speedometer reads 77-78. So would my odometer be off also? Thanks.:)

    its an exponential difference based on speed.


    only way to really know accurate speed is aftermarket scanner such as scangauge or ultragauge.
