You can get a calculator thingy online somewhere that you put in your old and new wheel/tyre size and it shows you how much speedo will be out!
But can't remember tha address! Someonw on here will know of one, as thats where I got it from once!

Its hard to say because speedos can be innaccurate from 2-5 mph anyway from what i'm told, so with larger wheels on this will jus increase the gap...
