If you have someone with a gps you could borrow it and read what actual speed was vs. speedometer readout at commonly used speeds i.e. 30mph, 45mph, 60mph. Most gps units have a mph function. You are probably 3-4" higher than stock original tire (depending on truck) so it would be my guess you will be off a ways. For example, if the original tire was 28" tall and you are running 31" tires, your tire is 10.7% larger in diameter.
