If you downsize to 16" you will also have a error on your speedometer.
Not if the overall tire diameter is the same.

'Nice explanation Grip. Thanks. The part about the additional "suspension" from the taller sidewalls that would be required to obtain the same overall diameter is right on the money.
I can see no way that addin' that additional suspension to your suspension could be beneficial . . well . . maybe if you were doin' alodda travellin' over washboard roads. But even then, that'd be a helluva price to pay for the loss of solid foot-plantin' in the corners.
Be well.
