lift and speed

I'm a new-bee so be gentle!
I just lifted my truck (F-250 V-10 CC)with a 4inch Pro-comp lift with 35 BFG's
and I was woundering if I'm actually going faster or slower then my speedometer reads.
Thanks

If you were dead on stock before, you are 10% faster now.
Go for the re-calibration.
