installed 1815 and have a question on tire size

Ok this is what i have i installed my program(1815 superchip) and i have 285/70-17's from the ground up i have 32 and a 1/8 inches @45psi so i set my tire size at 32 this is what i get at 60mph

speedo = 60mph

scan gauge II = 58

handheld GPS = 58

what is right the scangauge is reading from the PCM and the speedo gets its signal from the PCM so.......???

Thanks john

Thanks for the reply this is what i have learned

I just got back from trying 32.50,33 and 31.75 the GPS and the scangage are always the same dead on each other the speedo is always 2mph faster this leeds me to the speedo is 2mph off from the factory would you agree.

The speedos are off 2-4 mph from the factory. This is because of the spring and such that is used for the speedo needle. I went through this same thing with my Edge, and alot of others have also. I just played with the numbers until I had my GPS and speedo reading the same and actually got it to within .2 mph, but then the Edge readout from the PCM was off (same reading as your scan gauge).
