Speedometer Tire Size Correction Calculator: calculate estimated actual speed (km/h) from the supplied inputs.

Formula

indicated speed × replacement rolling diameter / original rolling diameter
  • Model: indicated speed × replacement rolling diameter / original rolling diameter. Idealized estimate assuming speedometer calibrated for original diameter; actual rolling circumference and manufacturer speedometer tolerance may differ. Inputs should be within meaningful physical ranges.
  • The main inputs are Displayed speed, Original tire diameter, New tire diameter. Enter them in the units and format shown in the calculator.
  • Use the units, labels and assumptions shown beside each input so the formula is applied consistently.
  • Changing any input above recalculates the result with the same calculation engine used by this page.

Example: Speedometer Gear

Inputs
  • Displayed speed: 90 km/h
  • Original tire diameter: 600 mm
  • New tire diameter: 660 mm

Using Displayed speed (km/h) = 90, Original tire diameter (mm) = 600, New tire diameter (mm) = 660, result: Estimated actual speed (km/h) = 99.
