recalibrating the speedomter

hey, guys i'm planning on getting the rota slipstreams in 15's except i would like a lower profile tire. the speedometer is gonna be off about 4.6%, and thats a lot. so i was wondering if there was any way to recalibrate the speedometer. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

just do it in your head. that's what i do. if i'm going 60, i know that im really doing 57.6. 4% x 60 = 2.4 60 - 2.4 = 57.6
