33s??? 35s??? HELP!!!

Constant downshifting on inclines drives me nuts.
I know I'm in the minority, but I'd run stock on the 4.10's until you can afford a proper regear for either the 33's or the 35's. If you're absolutely set on making a change without regearing, the 33's will be less frustrating, albeit not as cool looking.

I am in the process of making the same decision as you. I think I have decided on Goodyear Duratracs in 315/70/16. They measure 34.5 (34 when mounted.) I went to a local Goodyear dealer and saw one on display. They are really nice tires, a good hybrid between M/T and A/T. I also got a chance to see the same size duratracs on the same color JK Unl. that I have and they look good!!
If you don't already...just get a superchip and you'll be fine.

It's pretty flat around Teutopolis isn't it? It's been awhile since I have been in your area, but if it's like I remember, you'll have no problems with 35's and your 4.10's.

Im running 35s on a 4.10 auto. With overdrive off it drives just fine. People drink too much koolaid and immediately think regearing is a must. Drive it and see
