Quick question

I just switched wheels. I went from the stock 17's to aftermarket 16's. What handling characteristics will change? Will the speedo be off? If so, how do I adjust it? Thanks for the input.

it depends on if the overall diamerter of the tire changed and what tires you went to.

I went from a 275/75/17 Good year Wrangler to a 285/70/16 BFG AT KO. I just talked to the Discount tire. They calculated a 2.5 mile an hour diffrence. If my speedo reads 65 I'm going 67.5.
