    Me too. No real complaints. Until your crawling super slow and have a manual. And on the hwy no a lot of power..but that's more due to my fat truck too.

    4.10s and 33s are fine. If you offroad. 4.56s with manual and 4.88s with auto.

    I wish I had at least 4.30's or something with my 33's. 4:10's are too sluggish for me...

    I'm not even going to bother regearing until I have a new daily driver and decide whether or not I'm doing mid-travel and 35's or SAS and 37's.

    Umm..they don't make 34s for 15 rims.

    And you will have to regear and tub a bit.

    Sounds like it should be a decent combo. Since I'm still getting about 17-21 mpgs I probably shouldn't regear yet, otherwise I'll be driving like a madman with the extra get-up haha

    Ultimately I think I want 4:88's and a supercharger for 35's.

    CX racing is comingout with a turbo kit. Gonna wait to see how that turns out. At least the headers and make my own kit. I love turbos. Should get more power out of one.

    But that would be a great combo for sure.

    Idk how you fuckers get that kinda mileage.

    Idk. Pick some..if you want durtracs..get those. Just cause I said I don't like em doesn't mean you can run em. Lots of people still do.

    Idk about him.. But where I live in MS there's not exactly any rock crawling or anything so I mean the sidewall issues wouldn't be as relevant to us I guess. It would mostly be mud. I was considering them as an aggressive a/t that would perform decent in mud

    Heard good things about the yokohamas. Was considering them as they were cheaper too.

    The Duratracs are great if you don't off road much, they are quiet and have nice road manners. I probably could've gotten 30 to 40k miles out of them if I didn't pop two. Now if you off road that's a different story. The sidewalls are very weak and puncture easily as others have said

    Probably has something to do with the fact they're not carrying an additional 1500 lbs of steel, lights and wire looms :notsure:
