Just did a comparison, currently have 275/45 x 21" wheels and tyres fitted. CCF file set at original factory setting of 275/40 x 20" wheel/tyre with rolling circumference of 2220mm. 30mph on speedo digital readout, 30mph on GPS at 50mph on speedo read 51mph on GPS, 70mph on speedo read 72mph on GPS. Changed CCF file setting to 275/45 x 21" wheel/tyre with rolling circumference of 2385mm.
Got exactly same figures as before, so in my case changing the tyre/wheel size combinations didn't make a blind bit of difference to the speedo reading, might try playing about with just the rolling circumference to see if that changes anything sometime, but happy with speedo accuracy as is. The only thing I did notice is set cruise at 70mph digital readout but the cruise setting message saying set speed was 68mph but was the same for both CCF file settings, but have a feeling it has always been like that but not sure.
Did exactly same route both times, only 6 miles admittedly but original CCF file setting trip readout returned 6 miles, average speed 15mph and 13.5 mpg, second setting 6 miles average speed 23mph and 16.5mpg so little puzzled with that one, will have to wait until do longer trip to see which is most accurate.
Cheers
