Your odometer is off just like your speedo. You could check the revs/mile data on each tire and divide the revs/mile on the new tires by the old to get an exact, but 32/28 says both are off by approximately 14%.

I have the Superlift Speed calibrator. This gives you 2 settings. SO you can run 2 different size tires and switch back and forth when you swap them out. I cal'd mine with a GPS for accuracy. It is about the same $150.00.
