    I have a 2011 Tacoma TRD with a 3 inch lift on it and 285/70r17. Since I've done this my speedometer has been off by 5mph if it shows I'm doing 55mph im actually doing 60mph. Any tuners/programmers out there that could fix this so I don't get anymore tickets

    It’s more like 5 at 50, 4 at 40, 3 at 30.

    This is good. If you get pulled over just tell the cop that your guage showed a slower speed

    Yeah if you go to any 4wd store online or offline they should have them. They're pretty expensive though ~$250 but pretty much the easiest option

    Hypertech makes a handheld unit. About $200 I believe.

    The hypertech works, I used it to correct my speedo for my 285/75r17 tires. Hit up @eccracer104 and see if he can hook you up with a slight discount from the normal $200 pricetag.

    A thing or two...
    Sometimes they work. Ordered one for my truck, and it didn't work. I could connect to it and program it, but the speedo/odo didn't work after install. After Hypertech's CS hung up on me, I uninstalled it and returned it to AutoAnything for a refund.

    Ordered a Dakota Digital unit to tryout for half the price of the Hypertech. I'll install it once I get my truck out of the shop.

    HP Tuner can also adjust the speedometer to match the tire size. Rabbit hole though.
