Question regarding upsizing tires

This might sound like a total noob question, but every tire calculator I use state that by using different sized tires will throw off the speedometer, thereby affecting speed, braking etc. For the members who have upsized their tires...did you guys have to recalibrate the speedometer and how much does braking change?

I've been thinking about doing the lift/tire upgrade for a while now, and before I do it I would like some firsthand inputs from members who have already done it. Any drawbacks, concers and general opinions would be greatly appreciated.
