the O/D of the stock 275/40/20 is 28.7"
the O/D of the 295/40/20's are 29.3"

Wouldn't this have a negative effect on the speedometer since the overall circumference of the wheel/tire is now 2" more than what it was?

By the calculations you should be traveling approximately 2% faster that what your speedometer says... ex your speedo shows 60 when in fact you're going 61/62

wouldn't this create a negative effect on the mileage as well?
Yeah i'm not worried about that. 2 miles per hour is not going to change anything.
