speedo accuracy w/ 195/60/14?

I just got new tires. Instead of getting 185/70/14 tires, i got 195/60/14 tires on my camry. it was cheaper to get the tires that were this size, rather than stock. my question is... how much does this change in tire effect the accuracy of my speedometre?


thanks!

your speedo will read 4.1% too fast - 57.6mph actual when speedo says 60.
