35's and 4.10 and AW4, truck goes alot of highway driving. what do you think? (MPG, and tranny?) Right now i have 33 mtrs on it thinking of going to 35s. Need some input. Thanx
I found a good deal on 35's and would use them on the highway and throw the 33's back on for the trails only wheel the truck about 2 times a month. So I should do it?
Im running 33's and 3.55's and it lost very little to no power. Maybe its cause I don't really pay attention to it. And on the plus im still making 15-17 MPG city.
I can tell you 33s and 3.55s sucks...no power, but it wheels fine, and mileage sucks. Can't wait to get my D44 in and my 4.88s up front...
Everyone has different opinions of what is good/acceptable...I still remember my Jeep on 235/75s being a very quick vehicle. Moved up to 30s and felt power fall off some but mileage stayed around 18 combined. My Focus now could almost keep up. Now on the 33s and I don't know what my mileage is, haven't worked out the odo correction yet, but I fill up a lot more frequently than with the 30s, and power has fallen off very noticeably. The Focus isn't running currently, but I am convinced it would beat my Jeep quite handily now. And no, it's not one of the nicer ones, it's a little 103hp LX base model...i run 33 mt's that are quite heavy and i find that i have plenty of power for regular city driving. im also on 3.55's
I have 35's and the factory gearing yet. Other then needing 4low more, it isn't that bad. It still has plenty of get up and go.
