Re: Manually advancing milage
many people spend big$$$ to roll back the miles.
Leave them as -is. If your speedo is electronic, this is not easy at all. Electronic speedos are designed to resist tampering, usually rolling back. But rolling forward is just as difficult.

Re: Manually advancing milage
Technically, anything you do to the odometer is fraud. Depending on your state's laws, you could have a mileage certificate issued that just states the true mileage is xx,000 greater than the odometer states, or you could have a certified garage change the odometer.
Any way you slice it, it is most likely going to be titled TMU (true mileage unknown) if you change it legally. Since some folks refuse to buy a branded title, it might affect resale value. I would just record mileage accurately and disclose that mileage to the new owner if you ever sell it.
