Re: 2nd odometer question.
Most of the replies talk about the speed, it's much more accruate to set
it by the odometer. find a highway with mileposts, drive 10 miles (10km
if you are in the northern provinces of the US LOL!) The difference
between actual and your odometer is the actual % it is off. Multiply
that times the number of teeth on your speedo gear to find out how many
teeth you need to go up or down.
My guess is that you will be right on with your tires.
