your odometer? if your overall tire diameter got bigger then the odometer would be going up slower... slightly... who cares. How is it going crazy?

I don't think you can do that. You need tires that are the same circumference to the original tire circumference.

Kinda?.....
You can adjust it by taking off the clear cover and adjusting the needle. Really confusing to write out. I have 20's as you can see and I had 18's. Easy fix. PM your number and I will tell you how.
thanks
