Use this calculator to work out the speed difference with larger wheels on;

CLICK ME

Carnt remeber wot the difference is but theres no way its 15mph out, av got 17's and i manage to convoy behind people doin approx the same speed without noticing a difference in speed.....

Realistically its prob about 5mph from experience although the calculator may have other ideas...!
