Re:
I was aware of the speedo over reading problem from several test drives prior to signing on the dotted line.
I do regular dirt road driving to and from the farm, so I had 225 65 17 Bridgestone Dueller D697's put on mine pre delivery.
I've done approx 500,000km in the last 6yrs on the predecessor to this tyre the D694 and have been very happy with it, so I'm expecting great things form the updated version the D697.
The 225 65 17 size has the speedo indicating 110km/h when it is really doing 104km/h. Providing the increase in rolling diameter isn't too big, I'll go for a 225 70 17 D697 next time as it is designated LT (light truck) which gives it a stiffer more puncture resistent sidewall.
