    With stock 195/75/14's and 4.10's with a W58 my silver truck has good acceleration and a nice tall 5th for the highway. You'll love the 1-4 ratios they are pretty evenly split so it keeps you in the torque band. I'll be dropping 4.56's in for auto-x season.

    I am in an opposite dilemma! My baby smart car tires at 175/55-15 end up at 23" dia. and is killing my highway mileage. They should be only temporary though until I figure out if I can do an LS swap.

    What's the latest on the ice rally, still a possibility? I miss me some snow

    I know how that goes, a cheap entry fee(as far as ND was) turns into an expensive weekend with travel, lodging and wear n tear.

    Your tires are 26" dia. which is exactly what came stock on mine :lol:
