No problem. Truth be told, it's a lot more complicated than that. What I suggest, especially since you have a manual, drive it for a while and find out how it feels. If it starts to feel sluggish (which most have reported the 2012s don't) might be time to gear

I know I'm the odd man out but I have an 08 manual trans with 3.21's on 35's and I don't mind it at all.

I'm running 37 trail graps on my rubi with 4.10. It is fine. Gears will be my last mod, when i have nothing else to spend money on. So in other words, never
