I run 4.56 and 31's in an automatic. It is actually reasonable on the
highway. I like it. I imagine 4.10 would be perfect.

While on the subject, My '03 sport with the D44 and 3.73's seems to
work well with the stock 30x9.5 GSA's (get stuck anywhere?- not yet).
Anyway, I will soon be making the move to 31x10.5, probably AT KO's.
Thoughts? Too much tire for the 3.73?

Thanks,

John
