Question Anyone notice a difference in their speedometer?

We have a 2005 XLT 4X4 and we are getting ready to put the 22" rims on the truck. Has anyone noticed a difference in their speed going from the factory 17" to the 22" rims? If so, what kind of difference are you seeing? Any info is appreciated.

I believe the tires are 305/45/22. We are getting them put on the truck this week when they come in.

Some tire places will hook up a computer and change your tire size. I opted for the Edge tuner which can do this and a whole lot more. I tried a couple dealers and they said they can't do it which is BS.
