Do changes in wheel size require computer changes?

Do changes in wheel size require computer changes?
I bought the 2007 GT with the stock 17" bullitt wheels and tires.
Then I put some 20" Ronaele wheels on (8.5" wide in front, 10" wide in back)
with low profile Toyo tires.
since the wheels are bigger, do the speedometer and odometer need to be adjusted?
If I get meatier tires with a larger sidewall do the speedo and odo need to be adjusted again?
If I do need a computer adjustment, where do I go, and what do I ask for?

Any change to the stock tire's revs per mile will require a change to the stock setting. It's an easy change with a handheld tuner. My SCT xcal2 allows changes in 10's (i.e. 470, 480, etc).

Rim size does not effect revs per mile or the tire.
Use the above OD calculator to find the revs per mile for both the
stock tires and your new ronaele (eleanor spelled backwards) and
compare the two numbers.
20" rims are bigger but the 'low profile' tires you have
on there should compensate for the bigger rim and give you
the same revs/mile. You dont state tire size so I cant figure out what
you are asking. Not enough info.
