    Do 4.88 GEARS and P255/70R18 TIRES play well together?

    Too many to list
    If u can, wait for 5:29 to come out for 37s. Heard they are coming out soon.

    4:88 is a bettter fit for 35s.

    Well that can get a little heavy. So you are probably looking at a 30-34' GN enclosed then? This is a 28' GN at 14K lbs for reference. The silver TJ has 6" clearance front and rear.

    Keith @dirtydeeds says he gets better fuel economy with 4.88's.

    Your truck will be more like factory with the 4.88 gears and 37" tires (RPM and power)

    I just talked to a shop today about 4.88 years on my 2008 tundra with 295 70 18 .......he said honestly not needed unless I went bigger he also said for the money that it cost to get it done they will not make that big of a difference on fuel ......but ge did mention. It will help on the city slightly.........he said if I was keeping the truck for a long time then it might be good for the transmission.....so now I dont know what to do
