Speedo read 50mph with 25" Vampires. I know mud tires screw up the speedometer so I'm assumming it was really doing closer to 55mph.

My Rubicon has hit 97km per hour and conversion from miles to km is 1.6 km for every 1 mile when yo do the math is equals out to 60.625miles a hour.

I mean, what do you think the added speed with my 589's equaled out too when the speedo read 53?
