When you get a larget size rim and tire, you have to update your speedometer, how do you exactly do that? would a 4 wheel alligment do it?

After I installed my reverse gauges, my speedo was way off. My RPM was still accurate though. I found one of those radars that says "your speed is" and used that. I took the needle off my speedo and put the car on cruise control. The radar said 60, so I put my needle back on pointing at the 60. Ever since then I have not had a problem...
