For 33 inch tires go with 4.88 gears. If you plan to go with bigger tires in the future go with 5.29 gears. I had 33 inch tires with 4.88 and it worked well and now with my 35 inch tires I wish I had 5.29 gears. Too expensive to change something at this point that works adequately. You speedo will be nearly perfect with either 33 or 35 with 4.88 gears because the math would put it about 34 inch diameter to match stock gearing.
