That might work, but it all depends on how close to the mile marker (start and say 1 mile) i can get. If I had to line up, say on the return roads, then parallax would be greatly increased. It really

It is easy.. any reasonable auto dealer can check the calibration of you speedo tire shops I think as well and the cost minimal. another solution is to find a friend with a known calibrated gps. With

Why not do it on jack stands in your clean, cool garage? With the car on the floor, measure from the centerline of the axel to the floor because of squat or footprint. That radius should be slightly

Hi Jon. Think of the lower tire radius as a lever arm. It's the lever arm (and its length) that does all the work to move the car forward. That length of the arm also affects the overall gear ratio.

It was a bit of an analogy.. Take a fan belt and put a mark on it. Then put it on a bench on edge like it is a tire and put a mark on the bench that lines up with the one on the belt.roll it one revo

It started with measuring the loaded radius or unloaded to get the proper My point is the whole tire has to go one rev and all of needs to touch the ground so loaded or unloaded makes no difference..
