I often use the previously described 60/60 method (60 MPH for 60 seconds) to see just how close I am with tire size. It work really well for those who don't have a GPS. For more accuracy, set the cruise at 60 and do 5 miles vs. 300 seconds. This will get you REALLY close.

And as Jack said, the speedo is nearly always 2 MPH faster than the actual vehicle speed so even if you're 1-2 MPH off, you should still be safe.

Take care.
