1985 300SE Transmission/drivetrain

I need to know the stock tire size, rear axle gear ratio, and the overdrive gear ratio on the 4 speed automatic trans.

I have a customer who has a broken speedo and is wondering what multiple to apply to his tachometer in 4th gear to get an approximate speed.

thanks in advance

The transmissions have a 1:1 ratio in 4th gear.
