Default Reconfig Speedometer?

Ive been looking for some nice black rims for my 06 S40 fwd with currently 17" wheels. I found some nice used rims on ebay which actually includes tires but they are in 18". (which will cost about the same as if I got new 17" and then got them mounted on my current tires)

I'm in the proccess of calling online wheel stores to make sure that they will fit. I would most likely buy them in stores but so far two of my rim orders have been canceled due to manuf. distrubution problems, and I can't seem to find a store that actually has them in stock or doens't have them on backorder.

(they look much cooler in a black backround)


I do know that changing the size of my tires will offset both my Speedometer and Odometer. I'm pretty sure every calculation is digital in the s40 and I don't have to worry about odometer gears, so does anyone know how simple it is to reconfigure your computer so that readings stay accurate?

Thanks, and any other suggestions for black/very dark rims are welcomed!
