Regearing ??????
Have just regeared my 08 X to 4.88 gears with 35" tires. When i drove it stock I was in 4th gear from 40 to 60, 5th from 60 o 75, and 6th from there on out. But now I reach 5th gear at 50 mph. Does this seem right? I am still getting use to driving stick because this is my first manual car. I am shifting each gear around 3100 rpm is that even right? It seemed to be right when it was stock. Any help would be great

I shift between 2000-2200, But I'm a broke 21year old college student that drives like a grandpa. Helps to save on the $$$ given away at the pump. I'll edit later today with my MPH of shifting.
