calibrating your speedo

yours will probably not need doing....coz most standard steelies are 13".....and corsa alloys are 14"...going that extra inch will not make any difference to how the speed is calculated...

only really needs doing if ya av 17" or higher wheels....

so u reckon my car will need the speedo calibrating when I put my 17s on?! I dont think many,if any people EVER do this cos I always thought that the speedo error is that small you can hardly notice it!
