Download a GPS based speed app on your phone, take the car out and compare indicated speed with the phone app at 30, 60 and 90 mph, do the math to calculate how much of a tooth decrease /increase you need.

Be sure to take 3 or more readings from slow to fast. and pick a range that is closest to where you drive most.

ie {@ 30mph indicated, GPS shows 25mph = 1.2

1.2 x what you have in there now = adjusted tooth count count.

For me, Freeway speeds can be hardest to judge consistently when the car has overdrive.
