How far off are y'alls speedometers?

I've considered 18's, but didn't want to throw the speedometer way off (especially since I've got gears). I figured that 275/17's and 315/17's would be good, but maybe the speedo thing isn't a real issue.

Mine 18's are 245/40 F and 275/35 R, side walls are the same....speedo remained the same from 245/17 that I had on prior to the swap...I run 373's to.

 

[LukeDaddy]

Mine is the same from 275/40/17s to 285/35/18s

another for 35

 

[BlackVert]

i have:

18x9 rims front and rear

front: 255/40/18 (the min for 9" wide)
rear: 285/35/18 (the max for 9" wide)

when my rears wear out, i'm going to 285/40s, better traction

I have 245/40 up front (very skinny for a 9" wheel), and 275/40 out back on 18X9's all around. My speedo is spot on according to various radar guns.
