my new wheels!

hey, i have a question. i recently bought used rims from a guy who had a civic hatch. He sold me his rims and tires. my question is, do i have to adjust the tires air pressure? to suit my car, or is that something to do with the tires? secondly, the tires are smaller then teh stock ones, so will that mess up my speddoemter and odometer? and if so, how do i fix that? thanks!

You should check the tire pressure just to be sure, I have about 30-32psi in my tires all around. To see how much your odometer will be off visit tire calc. To fix it, buy bigger tires.

I think you can get your speedo recalibrated for your tires at a tire shop if you want it to be correct, but that is expensive and doesn't help when you take your new tires off again.
