Yes, but if you're chasing 0.1 MPH, there's a clinical name for that: OCD.

Check your tire pressures first. Speedometers should not spontaneously get out of adjustment.

dude, i wish i had time for that kind of insignificant stuff. i agree with MAKG thats borderline OCD. i have to assume you went for say 225s to 235s or 70's to 75's. if its reading .9=1mile then look at it this way, if you put 100000miles on it you will be selling it with 90000 on it. good luck!

gearing doesnt matter, just tire size.
1/10th of a mile off is a 10% err. that means at 70, your actually doing 77. worth correcting IMO.
