You have a manual, the new tires are only an inch taller than stock - live with it...

If you have plans of moving up to 35's in the future, go with 4.88's

If you just feel like throwing $1000-$1500 out the window, go with 4.10's or 4.56's

4.10's and 33's here and it's near perfect with my 6 speed...ok, in retrospect, 4.88's would probably give you more forgiveness to stay with 33's or move to 35's...you have a manual transmission
