SteveV6,
My practical experience (so ignoring web based calculators etc) is less than 4% on Cooper ATR LT's in the size you quote. This experience is based on 100km travel distance measured by GPS in freeway conditions, vs the LR odometer. This means when my speedo says 100, my genuine speed is approx 103.8kmh.

My estimate on the BFGs is 5%. However, I've yet to check it (via GPS).
