Default Adjusting tire size with edge evo? Millimeters?

I just put on some 315/70/17 (35x12.50/17) Hankook M/Ts on my truck. I'm trying to adjust my Edge tuner for the new tire size. I'm using level 3 with the custom option. when I go in to the 'tire size' option it has the number 2,300 (mm) and an up or down arrow.

Now I googled 35 inches -> millimeters and it's showing me 889 millimeters.

so what the heck do I set the evo to?

Might be the circumference and not the diameter

889*3.14=2791.46

also you will have to subtract the squish factor. for me it was 3% i think. so multiply the number that edge gives you buy .03 then subtract that number from the number that edge gives you. that should make your speedo more acurate. it helps to use a gps to check it too.

Or simply multiply the number by .97

haha yall can hush. idk why i didn't think of that lol. i've just always seen people explain it like i did but yeah that way is a lot quicker. just multiply the number by .97,.98,.99, etc. and check with a gps or some other way until you get it right.
