im not too worried about speed, tickets dont bother me all that much(you should see the stack ive got)
but, my speedo was about 5 mph off for a long time, then i put the 17's on it and it was fine after that.....
cops around here dont car too much, on the main roads outside town you can sumtimes do 80 without any probelms.....but most of the time you can easily get away with 65-70
