Will I hate myself in the morning?
« on: Apr 06, 2006, 07:13:33 PM »
I just finished my SAS and Chevy rear and have lots of clearance but already built both axles with 4:88's.  Will I hate myself if I go ahead and buy 35's and am a little undergeared?  Or, stick with the 33's and not use the clearance I just did all of the work for? I have a V-6 with auto tranny in a 90 4-Runner.  Chevy rears, rears up front, spool rear v-6, lunch-box frontv-6, working on hydro assist currently...  Help,, no money for new gears!!  only 32's :smack: currently

I would get the 35's. I have 4.88s in my runner and will be upgrading to 35's very soon. Only buy the tires once and save yourself some hassle.

My 3.0 pulls 35s with 4.88s very nicely.  It did pretty well going over the continental divide to Moab, last week. 

I was going to go 33s, too, but with the clearance I had I decided to go with 35s, and I don't regret it.

I've seen 37"s and 4.56. I don't recomend it to anyone, but it worked. Just lugged a lot in daily driving.

Thanks for all the input guys!  I guess I'll get the 35's.  Cool factor will be bigger!
