Honestly, 3/4 inch change in diameter is within the range of speed variance you'd see on the OEM tire between full tread and fully worn. I wouldn't sweat it that much.
I went from a 305/35R19 to the 305/30R19 and the speedo was almost 4MPH off at 80. It bothered me enough so I recalibrated mine awhile ago with forscan.

Did you also go through the FORScan procedure to clear your DTCs after you adjusted the speedo? I discovered my car bogged down in 4th gear until I cleared the DTCs generated by the speedo adjustment. What did you experience?

That is good to know; is there a write up in this thread or elsewhere as to the specifics of doing the speedo adjust using Forscan ?

I did this awhile ago when I was testing a forscan build that cleared the DTC code. They were having trouble clearing the code on our cars. The build I had worked to clear the code and I believe that’s what everyone is using now. It was last year when I did it.

Yes, current public builds of FORScan have no trouble clearing the P160A PCM DTC in Mustangs after changing the tire size in the BCM.

This only works on Windows or can we use our Android phones to download the software?

Where/how did you do this? I signed up and have been approved, but I don't see where I am supposed to register the software or apply for whatever I need to display the trans temp.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

** Edit** I figured it out...Gonna read up on how to do this again!

I managed to get my Trans oil temp displayed on my first attempt. It was relatively easy I have to say. Now that I have some confidence I will most likely disable the horn double honk. Still considering the R start up screen display but I like the one us non R guys/gals have. When I get my diff cooler in, which us down the road I can get the axle temp going.

One strange thing did happen though, when I hit the write button and it made the change my AC came on. Once I completed a ignition cycle all was normal. Just a bit of a quirky thing to happen.

You go get another one the same way as the first next time you want to use it.
