How do I adjust the speedo

Got some new tires, Toyo Open Country A/T, 285/75 R18. Up from 275/70 R18. Is there any way to adjust my speedo, to offset the 3-4 mph difference at 70 mph. Can't they adjust it in the computer at the dealer? My truck is a 2006 F-350 PSD w/ torqueshift auto trans.

The OEM Tires were supposed to measure 33.1" in diameter, the new ones spec at 34.8" in diam. I guess that would qualify for a dealer adjustment?

Also the SCT does not adjust the speedo. The revs per mile is to adjust the transmission shifting.

Go to the dealer or buy an aftermarket box.
