3 MPH off for me, regardless of tire size.

I run 215/55/16 winter tires (recommended size for my lpt) and 225/45/17 for my summer tire and the speedo shows exactly 3 MPH faster than actual speed regardless of the wheel size. Somewhere I read that EU regualtions are so strict that the 3 MPH difference is somewhat normal in order to ensure the speedo does not read slower than actual speed. Not sure if that is true, but I think it has saved me once or twice with speeding tickets.
