Default 35" tires

i got some yesterday and they seem to drive smoother. any info? cuz people have told me that the 4:10 gears will run better with 35s rather than 30s

There is a 14% difference between a 30" tire and a 35" tire.
The difference between 3.55 and 4.10 is pretty close at about 13% or so
So basically your effective gear ratio is the same as running 3.55(actually your running closer to a 3.52-3.50 area) gears and 30" tires if thats what your wondering

A 4.10 and 30" tire would mucho sucko.

like all things it depends on what your doing. If your going to be doing some slow speed off roading I would probably change to a 4.56 If all your doing is running around town and occasionally go through a mud hole thaen the 4.10s will be fine.
