Your speedo will read about 5% high (depends on the exact tire) or about 3mph@60. Your _apparent_ gas mileage will also go down 5%, because the odo will read 5% more miles, but the actual mileage change is too small to measure. Your effective gear ratio changes by 5%, or about .15 numerically higher.
Enough difference to notice, not enough for me to worry about.2000 Firebird convert, chameleon/tan, M5, Y87, TCS, BMR tower brace and panhard, KBDD sfcs, 245/50-16 GSCsComment
