Easiest Speedo change

Hey guys, looking to adjust my speedo to compensate for bigger tires, what's the easiest/cheapest method? Not necessarily looking for performance tunes, but if thats the route I have to go then maybe I'll just spend the cash...

If you dont want tunes the dealer can recalibrate the speedo for around $50. If you do most any tuner will compensate for tire size, be it a custom tuned Xcal or an Edge or Superchips.

I actually think the dealer can only compensate with a speedometer recalibration minimally. So in this case a tuner would be the best option since you'll also gain power and mileage. Just like Ftruck said any tuner will work for you. Now you need to decide if you want a canned tuner or custom tuner. I use a custom tuned Xcal2 from VMP Tuning with great results.

Yeppers! Go for a tuner whether it's a X Cal or Edge or whatever. You will be happy! You can then read DTC codes, adjust for tire size and really wake up your truck! I love my X Cal 3 with Troyer tunes!
