I dunno la. Aren't you suppose to "recalibrate" the speedometer after changing tyres to different size?

nope, you just get the tyre of the correct size so that your speedometer is still the same.

http://www.miata.net/garage/tirecalc.html

if you're using 16", should get a tire with 225/40 or 215/45 etc~
*
That's the thing.

My friend's new tyres and rims are larger than the stock ones. He didn't know it would affect the speedometer.

it should not change much.... if his ori is 15" 195/50 upgraded to 17" 215/45 the speedo should be +5km/h only

FYI 195/50 on waja the speedo shows -10km/h

for waja with 17" 215/45 should be as accurate as GPS.... trust me coz im using military MTK 15hz real time GPS logger for my carpc.

I see.

He did admit that his wheels are larger than stock so definitely it'll give inaccurate readings, but I didn't ask how much larger though, just know that while he said he was reading 120 in his car, I was chasing him at 130. Mine is stock rims and tyres so I'm gonna assume my speedo is correct.

stock rims and tyre always incorrect... it's -5 to -10km/h diff.... you also cannot define the front car speed by chasing because by newtons laws the variation speed cannot be seen when you are behind the car due to co-drag efficiency unless you both at side by side.

OKla.....my brain gonna explode dy. biggrin.gif

So actually my speedo also inaccurate because of stock rim and tyre?

to be precise, it's actually tak tak sound.. the noise comes out from steering (under dash board?), not under the hood.. lolx~ the noise really annoys me a lot  vmad.gif

Yes, sounds suspiciously like the driveshaft/steering tie rod/whatever the heck they call it. You can hear it from the steering column, though not always can hear from outside the car.

Refer to this thread, the first image

+1

I thought R3's front bumper + grill is hideous, esp the grill. I saw plenty of front skirts for Waja bumper that looks nice, though.
