After being constantly passed on the highway and on the backroads and on dirt trails I had doubts about my speedometer reading. After further investigation I confirmed that I am reading about 5 mph faster than I am actually going (says 55 but really going 50) I am still running the tires that came on the van when I bought it - 14 inch rims and 195/75 R14 tires. I know that bigger tires may fix my speedometer reading- I am just trying to confirm what it is supposed to have when stock. thanks Gary in Stuart, Florida 1984 Vanagon 1972 "Baha" Beetle 1962 Buick Skylark --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
