    She has a 7500 lb capacity and you loose 500 lbs per tire size increase 35-32= 3 3x500 - 1500 loss
    You got her in gears if that makes you feel better. Lol

    The Taco? Well.. She'll run forever, but she's no daisy in the power department :benchpress:

    I'd love a SC. If you find a way of compromise without buying two... Share the wealth. Bwahahahah
