The bigger problem is not so much the speedo but the big drop in gearing.

I am sure somebody on here had 13"s fitted and it would do 85 flat out if that, the gearing will suffer big time.

Benrevs had 13" rims fitted and yes, it made his gearing horrendously short and his car drank loads of fuel.

Stick to 14" min and try and keep the rolling radius vaguely similar.
