Well, the cheapest way to do it is for free. Check post #20 on the thread below for an example of a MPH vs RPM chart I can make for you that corrects your Speedo for an oversize tire.

Estimating Your Maximum RWHP From 65-75 MPH WOT Acceleration Runs
https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/667554-estimating-your-maximum-rwhp-from-65-75-mph-wot-acceleration-runs-2.html

As you can see from that post and several previous ones, I'll need your diff ratio, tranny type, stock tire size, and it's most accurate to measure the rolling circumference of your oversize tire as I explained there.

doing it for free will not allow the odometer to be correct

try truspeed, speed wizard, accuspeed

etc..
