That's on the '98+ Automatics...not sure about the 5-speeds though.

Ron,

Bernd has determined that the 98 and up no longer uses a speedo gear change
to correct for a change in tire size as the PCM needs to be reprogrammed
instead. I went from the 235/75-15 to 255/65-15. Both of these tire sizes
come directly from Dodge on the Daks. I also assumed that since these are
standard tire sizes they should available as a selection on the device used
to reprogram the PCM. The change in tire size is small but if there is a
way to set my speedo to correct for it I would still like it corrected. I
guess I need to call another dealer.

Ken
