Do you think the 40s will be tolerable? I don't really mind if they make my rig a little sluggish (it is a jeep afterall) but i don't wanna it to be intolerable.
I guess it would be tolerable. That's what's nice about having a stick though too, just rev it a little more in each gear.

I got 35s also. After about a thousand miles they got a lot quieter. I did a lot of research on upgrading my tires and just love those Nittos!

I love the hum of the tires, I hit anything over 40 and I turn the radio off.
