The Kumho 215/70-14 RoadVenture ST's I have have an 805 rpm spec as per Kumho. I've checked my odometer against roadside markers for up to 100 miles and it is dead on. I check my speedometer on those unmanned radar signs that they put along side the road around here and I am always within 1 mph.

Good luck,

Tim
