35's, Gears, MPG, Transmision
I am wanting to re gear my 4 dr 3.73 auto to allow me to run 35" tires with a 4" lift. What I am wondering since it is a daily driver is...
1 What type of mpg are we looking at with 4.88(or something close to that) and 35" tires?
2 What gears do you recomend?
3 Can you still use overdrive?

the difference in 4:88 and 5:13's is about 100 rpm at about 65 mph. notice i used the word "about" twice in the previous sentence. thats because im not sure exactly what the numbers are, but thats close.......i think.
