I'm running 3.73's with an auto and 35's. It's fine around town and just take it out of overdrive when on the highway/interstate and get about 15.5-16.5 on the highway!
Had plans to install 5.13's before I bought the tires and now I don't think I'm going to.

Don't get down on yourself. You're doing a smart thing AFAIC. People who shoehorn larger tires on their rig when they're not prepared to regear are doing things out of order IMO. Besides, it's not like stock Rubicon rubber will render your JK useless or incapable of traveling some fun, interesting trails.
The neutering was mostly appearance, but also loss of ground clearance to the diffs.
Its look went from badass to "meh, another Jeep" in nothing flat.
