    The speedometer doesn't care what the radius of the tire is squished or not. All it cares about is the distance the tire travels in one revolution. The only way to change that is the longitudinal stretch or shrinking if the tread.

    No, a tire is not perfectly fat. Check the roll out on the EDGE of the tire when its unloaded and you will see

    Trust me on this one, I really wish you were right because I needed my tire to be the roll out it was when it was not loaded up.
