I have 33s and 3.21s. 6th gear us useless below 70MPH. Other than that, it moves.

I like those rims alot. As far as gearing and tire size try them if it doesnt work out you can post them in the for sale section or ebay them.
Hopefully others will chime in w/ first hand experience that were in similar situations. Or try some searches and you might find some help. It just will take a little/lot of time to find the appropriate thread.

I support your wheel and tire choices, I wouldn't want to drive it with 3.21s but that's just me. Can't say that I've driven it Jeep with that high of gears and 33s to tell you what to expect though.

3.21 arent that bad... I have 35's on 3.21s right now and its completly fine. I would not say its ideal, but as long as you remember its a jeep and dont expect to do 90mph then you wont mind. I still use 6th gear alot of the time. I really thought it would be worst than it is.
