yes, we're going to take the front tires off and switch the others and see if that does anything...but i know it wont. if it doesnt we're going to open up the dash and mess with the speedo

check your sensors by the rotors. i believe there is a wheel sensor there, could of got knocked loose when you swapped tire. (i believe there is a wheel speed sensor, im not sure though i might be thinking of somethin' else lol) if not check your vss. just hope its not your vss or you might be in for more than you want.
