With an inch taller tire, your speedometer is pretty badly off from the actual speed.

The built in economy meter is pretty bad even after resetting it after every fill up. I use it really only for instantaneous mileage which is really just a glorified vacuum and load readout. At the end of every tank after calculating litres used and distance travelled I get a much different number than the onboard average.
