I am going to put on a RE 4.5" lift, and am unclear as to what size tire to use, I was thinking either 32" or 33". My question is if I use 33" tires, am I going to need to re-gear and if so, to what ratio? I am new to this hobby and want to make sure my rig is done right. It is my DD and needs to function both on and off-road. Thanks to all.

I'm willing to bet, you'll be very happy with 4.56s.LuvmyXJ said:

I'm happy with mine, but still wish for 4.88's sometimes. JIM.Okie Terry said:

Since you've got the C8.25 rear though, 4.56 is as deep as you can gear it. That's still a great match for 32s and a decent match for 33s though.
