If you are under 3% off then you re fine.

For example my 2g Eclipse wheels which I consider as stock come with 205/55/16. Right now Im running 205/45/16, so my speedometer says around 65mph /64.1 mph/ and my actual speed is 60mph. I caught that difference with the GPS, and I was actually suprized that this calculator works

usdm 8g i4 = 195/65r15
usdm 8g v6 = 205/55r16

the i4 stock tires are actually marginally TALLER than the v6 stock tires even though the stock I4 wheels (15") are smaller than the stock V6 wheels (16").

right now i'm running 2.412% too slow (235/35zr19 ESV6), 60mph actual = 58.5mph speedo... close enough.

3.82%. You the V6 guys fair better because of the increased factory wheel size.
