hi,
i am pretty new to defenders and have a question regarding the speedo and odometer, the 90 iv'e recently purchased has reasonably over large in diameter tyres , when put against my friends disco the diameter difference is considerable. i think it is rinning somewhere around 750's and are general grabber .
The speedo seems to read almost spot on but the odometer seems to be almost 30% out is this possable. the distance i travel to work is nye on 12 miles in my old car but the 90 reads only 9 miles, when filling up the tank the odometer is saying im only getting around 200 miles to the red from brimming, but the maths says it should be reading around 285.
Could the diameter of the tyres throw the odometer out that much with the mph still being right
any thoughts on this greatfully recieved
