The stock 205/55-16 Turanza EL 400 revolves 837 times per mile, according to the Tirerack.com website. If I upsize to 215/45-17, some of the tires, such as the Pirelli Nero Zero M+S and the Bridgestone G009, revolve 847 times per mile.

Is that 10 revolution per mile difference (just over 1%) going to make a difference in the speedometer or odometer reading?

It seems that the 225/45-17 size gives a closer match to the stock Turanza's 837 revolutions/mile... but you don't recommend that size because of fitment issues?
