Yes, with the 20's it was 10mph off. So speedometer said 55, I was really going 65
With these new wheels & tires, it was more like 15mph, at faster speeds. I will have to check it again, but when the speedometer read 60, I was going 75. I was getting some vibration too, I didn't like it. When I dropped the speedo back to 55, it was smoother and was running 65-67 mph.
So if I'm ever on the highway, the cruise gets set to 55. Everyone is blowing bast me, but that's ok.
