Default How off should I expect my odometer to be with 19's?

With my stock 17" wheels on 235/45 tires I was getting a little over 400 miles on a tank. Now with 19's on 245/35's front and 275/30's rear I'm approaching 600 miles on my current tank. I know it's going to be off a bit but not expecting that much.

Your odometer/speedometer won't be off at all.....those are the same diameter tires. You may want to check your math again cause I don't think you are getting 30-35mpg lol

Nevermind. I'm truly an idiot. I totally forgot that I filled up again after coming back from my trip.
