Calculator
Enter a tire size (285/70R17), differential/final-drive ratio, and transmission gear ratios to compute the true overall tire diameter, circumference, revolutions per mile/km, an RPM × gear speed table, effective final drive after a tire change, and speedometer error. Metric or imperial units, with optional before/after tire comparison.
Call this tool from your code in three languages.
