Tire Swap Check

New tires, new wheels: your speedometer will be off by 0.0%

Type the size on your sidewall today and the size you are thinking of buying. See the real speed behind the dashboard number, the odometer drift, and whether the swap stays inside the legal speedometer limit.

When the dashboard says 100 km/h
100 km/h
is your true speed

Dashboard speed

Side by side

All values calculated from the size codes. Real tires vary by brand, wear, pressure and load.

Odometer drift

Drag to set the distance your odometer shows. The odometer counts wheel turns, so a larger tire covers more road per turn.

Odometer shows
100,000 km
Road really driven
0 km

Dashboard reading to true speed

Uses the error box above (0 means exact today). The rule check compares the dashboard to the true speed.

The legal limits apply to a vehicle as type approved. Most cars read a little high from the factory, so a swap that makes the speedometer read low is the one to avoid. Tire sizes also have to fit your wheel arches and load rating, which this page cannot check.
