Speedometer

Ok, I got a ticket the other day cause my speedometer is off by 5mph. I have the stock gears in my rear end, but I'm running 33" tires. Can I fix this problem for now, till I get new gears? Which is a long way off.

Call a speed/performace shop and ask them how much to recalibrate your speedometer. That should work... If its off by 5.. Im guessing if your speedometer say 65 your doing 70? Just estimate.. When you want to 65 in a 65.. Just go 60( according to your speedometer) or Visa vera.. Hope this helps.. You have 33's.. and its off 5.. Im gonna have 35's .. Also here is a LINK that was posted earlier.. Seems like a pretty cool site..
