Speedometer Accuracy???
I passed a radar speed check last night and noticed that my speedometer read 60mph while the radar clocked me at 56mph. Has anyone else noticed if their speedo is off?

It depends on how fast you are going. The faster you go the more inacurate it will be. The stock JDM tire size is 185/65R15 so unless toyota/scion chnaged the speed to go with the stock 185/60R15 tires we have that would cause a inacurate # right there.
