yea i plan on staying with 35's for a while and will daily drive it alot, to and from trails and for work. so My question is are do 4.88's do good with 35s or should i just run 5.29 for those of you from the central valley Im wanna know what will be friendly up the 4 lanes what should i do 4.88 or 5.29 I have a 22re with a 5 speed transmission
Punch in the number and you will have the results.
5.29's are a little over geared(about 3%) for 35's but they are the closest gear set that will put you the closest to the factory performance of 28's and 4.10 gears(w/a 5-spd), however given the heavier rotational mass of the 35's, the slight over gearing is basically insignificant.
If you are still running 4.10's it would be foolish to re-gear to 4.88's if you are going to be buying new gears. If you are trying to save money and have a line on a set of 4.88 diffs, they would be a better choice than running 4.10's, but you would be better off finding/waiting for 5.29's, especially if you might go to 37's at a later date.
