I have 3.73's with 31's and a 5 spd. It's geared very well for all use. The
only time I have a real power drop is when I'm aired down for the trail and
try to go over 50 on the road.
I've been thinking about a 2 1/2" lift and changing to 32's. I'll probably
need gears after that. If you have 3.07's now, you will definitely need a
change. I don't think 4.10 would be too much, especially if you ever decide
to go taller.
