I just bought some 17'' OEM Maxima wheels to put on my 1996 Maxima.

My 1996 Maxima currently has the original 15'' OEM wheels with 206 65
R15 tires.
This results in inexact measurement of about 24.5 inches.

Questions;

Will my speedometer and odometer be off because of the different
circumfrence of the new wheel/tire combination?

Is it possible to recalibrate or adjust the speedo to accomodate?

Is this expensive? What kind of place should I have it done?

Are there tires available that will result in the same circumfrence
once they are on the car as what is currently on the car?

Any guidance appreciated.
