Mine is on mph since its 84 but we went to kms some years back.
We have these road signs that display your speed. 50km on those signs corresponds with 35mph on the speedo. Funny the Rover 75 I drive [they were owned by BMW and are all BMW parts] also reads 35mph at those same signs. The 100km signs match 70mph. Both checked against GPS as well. So for 100km/h true I must go to 70mph on the speedo and that's a long way past 100kmh on the speedo which is at 62.5mph.
Rear tyre should be 130/90 but I use 140/80 and as its now coming down to just legal its about 10mm off the depth of a new 130/90. That's only about a 3% difference.
Doesn't bother me but its worth knowing when it comes to planning long trips.
