they read from the fronts, i dont think it puts it out. if it does not much......your speedo will be faster than what ur goin cos there is a smaller diameter tyre so you wont get booked.....
Just remember that MOST of your braking is done by the FRONT tyres.....
so be careful.... You now have a very small footprint compared to 165s...
Speedo cable goes to Left Hand front hub... with the hub cap off You can see the small square bit sticking thru the grease cap held with an "e" clip [circlip]..

Its free!
Just travel along side a mate with his mum's new Magna or Dunnydore,
Get him to sit on 60 and check what your speedo is.😎
