I used a little calculator gizmo on the BFG site that showed that speedo diff. Im going to run down the road with my DeLorme hooked up and see what it says. I got a Garmin around here somewhere too. Im running the 33.1 Mickey so it should not have changed much if any. The Bridgestones say they are 33. Im also wondering about rpm. I think I was running 2000 rpm at 60 with the Bridgestones.
This picture is one place I was concerned about losing clearance. Now it seems in my case it would be 3/4" closer with the bigger size in a Mickey. Leaving 2" clearance. About the size of a small rock where I go. I have wedged a rock in there already with the stock tires. When that happens you let the smoke out of the tires, and that's not good!
Oh and that was shot at F3.5
