  1. Well for speed average camera's they are a lot better than any speedo. Mine is always spot on when I go through one of those things that tell you you're speed when you are over the limit :unsure: You have to remember they fitted speedo's to Lada's, Tomahawk cruise missiles get GPS. These days probably cheaper than a recab plus a host of other benefits.

  2. it would give you a slower speedo reading ,wheel would be turning slower due to it being larger..

    I don't think so, the speedo is really just a post gearbox rev counter. So the wheel turning slower would be reflected throughout the drive train. If your axle indicates a speed then if the axle maintains that speed with a larger wheel you will have covered more distance. This would also explain why smaller wheels give better acceleration.

    Having said that I may be wrong :unsure:

    However what I know for sure is tire is what you do as a result of excessive exertion,whereas a tyre is a rubber thing put around the wheel of a car
