Hi there I looked on the Tire Rack website and could not find the section which will show me the rev/mile. My speedo shows 500 rev/km. I recently drove thru a measured km and discovered my odometer is off 20% (short). I assume the speedo is off by the same variable. This means my '88 Westy only has 160,000 km's and not 200,000 km as shown by the odometer. This is good news. Bye for now, Dick '88 Westy '90 Miata
