better match for his gearing, although 32s would probably be even better.<<
Yeah, I have the 4.0L and a 5-spd- should've mentioned that.
I'm pretty low right now, with 30's. It's kind of nice, the thing just leaps
off the line, I bet I could dump the clutch at idle and not stall it. 70 mph
is about topped out as far as a comfortable cruising speed, though, since
that's about 2500 rpm.
I was thinking that 31's would give me a little more top end, and a little more
clearance, and heck... look cooler too! OTOH, I have many many other things to
spend money on (winch, skid plates, elk rifles, etc)...
