Tire Size and Speedo Reading
 

Please help me settle a "discussion" my neighbor and I are having. As
most of you already know, the stock tires on my 2003 TJ Sport are
Goodyear GSA (I know, it stands for "Get Stuck Anywhere") 30x9.5/15.
As soon as I can justify new tires, (wifey has issues) I will be
putting on 31x10.5/15, probably MT/R's or the like. Here is the topic
of "discussion"... I say the speedo will read less than the actual
speed I'm travelling with the larger tires and my neighbor says the
speedo will read more than than the actual speed. Can someone please
chime in here? Thanks. John

Re: Tire Size and Speedo Reading
 

I have 33s on my CJ and I never changed my trans cog so I comp my
speedometer by about 10 miles per hour up. The bigger tire rolls further
per rev so your speed shows slower.

Re: Tire Size and Speedo Reading
 

The tires have a larger diameter, therefore a larger circumference. For
each rotation of the tire you will traveling farther. Therefore, for any
given speedometer reading, the larger tires will cause you to travel faster
than smaller tires would. Tell you neighbor to read his high school
geometry and physics books.

Re: Tire Size and Speedo Reading
 

I recently put 31x10.5 BFG AT/KOs on my 2002 TJ/X (and they do not rub, no
mater how hard I try to get them to). According to my GPS, I travel at 63.8
mph when my speedometer reads 60. The GPS is very accurate when in motion.

A BIG thank you to all who responded. I'll think of you all as I pull
the top on every one of the six "beverages" I'll be getting from the
neighbor this evening... <pffftt> <glug> ...aaahhhhh. 8^)
