What would cause the odometer to move faster than the distance you are travelling?

I ran 205x50’s for a long time. They will make the odometer and speedometer read farther and faster than what is really happening.

How much is it off?

Running different size tires than original specs will throw off the speedometer and odometer slightly.

Running 185/65/15 so I don’t think that’s the issue
