How do you calibrate the speedometer after wheel size change? Do you need a handheld programmer or dealership?

Invest in a Tazer or Flashcal.
Has many other uses too down the road.
I would never go to the dealership for something like this and rob me for $200 of my hard earned money every time I upgrade my tires.

Does changing wheel size do anything to your warranty?

Modifications would have to have been proven to be the cause of something unfortunate to void the warranty. Magnus-Moss Act...there are quite a few posts referencing this & mods/warranties. Tires, wheels, suspension parts, you name it.

Tazer or dealer can do it. All dealers are different, some don't give a shit and others are assholes. Fortunately my dealer is very mod friendly, they do lifts etc.

My wife bought a malibu recently from a different dealer and they had her sign something acknowledging modifying the car in any way can void her warranty.
