I'm looking at a General Grabber UHP, anybody use this tire? 205/70/15 would appear to be the ticket for correcting speedo error. Thanks!

I'm running the Grabber and I love it. It does not correct the speedo error though. Mt speedo is still reading 6-7 mph higher than actual, according to GPS.

I'm running the Tiger Paw 205/70-15. With a tube. I'm happy.

I've got an 1800 final back there and a Speedohealer. With the stock size Metz my speedo was off -17%. With the Tiger Paw it was off -15%.
