If the oversize Nitto tires (285/60/18) affect the speedometer reading, that is I am actually travelling faster than the dash indicates, how does that affect the mileage reading? Do I have less than is on the readout? I wonder what the culminative affect of that discrepancy is over the years?
Best,
the 285 is a 6% difference, so you are traveling faster then indicated and you will actually be traveling father then indicated. So, recheck you gas mileage using the .06 times your indicated mileage, then add your indicated mileage to this figure to get the actually distance's traveled.
Greetings, Earthling. We come in peace... Never mind "Paris to Dakar", the VehiCROSS looks ready for the Martian desert.
