Would 3.73 gears be good

I want to put gears in my xj, but dont want to rev too high on the freeway. I also don't want to get a big decrease in gas mialage. I will be running 32x11.50
thanks

I would say 4:56 but go at least 4:10

kind of important to know what engine and trans you have.

Gearing too high will hurt you more than gearing low. 4.56 is pretty close to factory on 32's. With 32x11.5's and 4.56's i was getting about 18 mpg and cruising comfortable at 75.
