Hello, i changed tyres from 225/45/R17 to 205/40/R17. Diameter of wheel is lower for cca 40mm.
But i do not see any changes in speedo on city radar. i always go 55 kph and there is 50 kph on radar before and after change tyres.
Is it possible?
 
could be, if you had no tread on the larger tyres, and lots on the new ones it could be close to each other

other than that im stumped
