[DeTomaso] Speedo question

[ProvaMo.com]

It is not the rim/wheels it is the overall wheel/tire diameter.

I think the stock number was 27.1+  (with car weight).

You can get a box (with custom gears) that adjusts this if you want.

Does the "Palo Alto Speedometer" shop still exist?

Another solution is to use a GPS device.

Another method is to change speedometers to one of the electronic types
with adjustable calibration.

Or you can "live with it..."

Subject: [DeTomaso] Speedo question

I have 17" rims on my Pantera, and it seems that the dimensions have changed
enough to read out about 10 mph faster than the actual speed (verified my
good Palo Alto PD's friends radar).  What is the standard fix for this, or
is there one?

thanks!
