Changing the Size of rims and tyres will Effect your Speedometer Reading

Some people might wondering why the pick up of their cars are not same between when they are using their stock rims and when they are using larger size of rims.There is some theory that when we install sport rims,the larger diameter of the tyres and rims will show the lower speed on the speedometer than the actual speed that we are driving.I do not know the truth about this theory but i just found out a page that shows the effect of changing the rims and tyre to a bigger diameter.

Here is the page:-
