This web site will calculate the speedometer error using non standard
size tires:
http://www.miata.net/garage/tirecalc.html
My experience with 89-91 US 405s is that the standard 185/65R14 and
195/60R14 are too small both asthetically, in the wheel wells and for speedometer
error.
I always use 195/65R14 or 205/60R14 tires when possible.
You might plug these sizes into the calculator to find out you overall error.
Or take you car onto a mi marked freeway for 5 mi with the cruise on 60 mph.
Don't forget your stop watch and calculator
