Going to have to be careful on the average speed section of the M5 when back at work next week...

So what's the error.

235/70/16
265/75/16
 
Exactly, they give me a percentage, I'm trying to find a chart to show the speed difference for varying speeds, rather than have to work it out myself. :D

Why ask for the error then, and what specific speed(s) do you want to know the difference for? :confused:
 
Jesus it's not exactly hard is it, it would take 30 seconds... 30mph x % = X, 40mph x % =Y :p

You'll spend longer looking for something to do it for you than just doing 5 or 6 simple sums yourself!
 
Found one now. :D

54.5 instead of 50, that's the important one.

Clicking a mouse was easier than having to engage brain that's all. :D

I think I shall put the Sat nav in as Kamerad says, just to confirm that though in case it's not quite so clear cut. I've heard the over all size of these things can vary a a bit. :o
 
The error percentage is 10% anyway by the calculator I just tried, so it's pretty easy... 30/33, 40/44, 50/55, 60/66, 70/77... :p

That shouldn't even require your brain turning on, never mind engaging :D
 
You have a point there! :o
Although the 9.xx% didn't trigger anything in the Gray matter as I pretty much glossed over it while looking for speed numbers instead.
 
What are these beefcakes going on?

Always fancied an old Hilux or something similar with crazy tyres, just because
 
Haha.
They are not that crazy, I've seen bigger but I can't go there until I've got the front bumper sorted (any bigger and the tread will rip it off) :D
