    I know the speedo needs to be calibrated when going with bigger tires but my question is, does the odometer record more miles than i'm actually driving since going 295/70/18?

    If you go bigger tires, that means you're going further per revolution, which means the speedo shows slower than you're actually going, and recording less miles. If you go with smaller tires, then it will be the opposite.
