Bought a new 4Runner, question about tire size

I searched the threads but found that most of the tire size questions deal with tires larger than mine. I just bought a 2002 4Runner Sport and am wondering:

1) are my tires stock?

2) will the tire size affect my speedometer?

The 4Runner came with Bridgestone Dueler H/T's, P265/70R16 111S

Thanks for your help!

Your tires are stock size. They will not affect your speedo at all.

the tires you HAVE will display speed accurately on your speedometer, not sure if you are asking if changing will affect... if you go bigger, speedo will read slower than actual

I have the exact same tires on my 98, I run them at 30-32psi because they tend to wear on the center a little with more pressure.
