tire size comparison calculator?

Hi,
Can anyone lead me to that handy calculator that will compare speedometer speeds of different sized tires? I'm switching my winter blizzaks from 215 55 16 to 205 60 16 and am curious what effect it will have on speedometer and odometer.

Thanks

When I had purchased new tires and rims, the seller informed me all about wheels and tires. He also mentioned that if the tire+rim size overall is less then an inch higher in diameter then the stock tires+rims, you are fine.

So you only have a 10 mm difference, you should be fine.

you're going to have to do the simple math based on the %s....CLINK
