-5.31% Error in speedometer and odometer readings
Ergo when the speedometer says 65mph, you are actually traveling at 68mph
If you are calculating 15mpg, you are actually getting 15.8

Thats what I use to figure mine, but my 04's stock size is a 255/65/16= 29.05" for a 2.55" difference or aprox 9%.

According to my MPG Tracker app I am getting 12.85mpg as a daily driver with a good 10 min warm up time in the morning before work and in the evening before leaving work.
I suspect it will increase once winter is over.
