    Remember your trans makes up for the 3.07 gears. You put those 3.73s in you'll practically be set for 35s.

    Wow that's a bigger difference than I thought but both look great! How big is the difference in gearing between the NAG1 and the 545FRE? I always wanted to go Superlift some day but just run 33's out of fear that drive-ability would be poor with anything larger.

    NAG1--NAG1 With 3.07 Final Drive Ratio
    3.59----11.02
    2.19----6.72
    1.41----4.33
    1.00----3.07
    0.83----2.55

    545RFE--545RFE With 3.73 Final Drive Ratio
    3.00-----11.19
    1.67-----6.23
    1.00-----3.73
    0.75-----2.79
    0.67-----2.49

    So you can see that the 3.07 really doesn't put you at a gearing "disadvantage" since the trans gearing equalizes it.

    If anything, consider yourself lucky since you can re-gear to 3.73s, which happens to put you back to stock ratios when running 35s!

    Wow I didn't know it was that much more aggressive. I already have 3.73 gears and the NAG1 transmission so I guess I'm already good to run 35's with relative easy, right?

    Speed Vs RPM wise you'll be back to stock if you slap on some 35s, but there's still a lot of mass to get rolling so you'll feel that when the light turns green. Considering you have the 3.0L though, I think you're good to so since the torque curve is pretty flat.... so yeah, i'd say you won't have an issue at all.

    Yeah I know that's what I've heard/seen as well. But like I said, mine still towers over his. He's running brand new Mickey Thompson 33x12.5 and has no rubbing so I don't know. If I recall, those tires run just a bit larger than advertised?
