If I go from the stock 33's on the Adventure Pkg to 35's, how will this affect the all-wheel/4 wheel drive, speedometer, etc (if at all)?

According to the tire calculator I use going from 33" to 35" tires you be going 5% faster than the speedo shows and 7% from the stock 32"tires to 35" tires. Steve

I thought the same thing but i test mine on radar and those street signs telling you how fast your going my speedo read the same as those.
Then i tested it with another car to see if the sign where right.

why would you be going faster the bigger the tire you should be going slower.

Hmmm, I think that I'll respectfully disagree with this; the larger the tire (greater diameter), the more ground that will be covered by one rotation of the axle. If you have two same sized rims that are spinning at the same rpm, one is a 33" and the other is a 35", the 35 will be covering more ground. Hence, faster. (I'm not trying to patronize here)

I think you guys are talking about the same thing.
The speedometer will report slower than the vehicle is moving.
The vehicle will be moving faster than the speedometer is reporting.
