BLUEJAY.. where are you? LOL
too late I'll post up for him! and he can come along and correct me.

Its recomended to factor for squish. I do beleive that with OE wheels and tires your going to reduce by 3%. That way you will have a more accurate read out in AMPG., and MPH.

I think Bluejay found 5% works best for him. 3% is what I use. (And if I'm wrong, he can correct both of us).

You're dead right about the "squish" factor though. It's just a case of finding out the percentage that works for you.
