I checked mine again yesterday with the stock 165’s and 175/65 14 winters. With stock Dunlop’s the speedo would read 6-7 kph faster than I was really going. With the 175’s it reads about 4kph faster.
Doesn’t seem like much but when most traffic is going 5-9kph faster than the limit and if you’re actually going 6 under, people probably get irritated? I think it’s a Canada Mirage thing and US cars aren’t like that. I checked brand new Mirages too, they were all the same.
I used to feel like I was speeding all the time til I rechecked my Speedo and it was off by more than I remembered. I can do 10 over according to the speedometer and not worry about ever getting a ticket.
