So, now are you saying you are changing your story? Are you actually now agreeing with me that the power band is fixed? Which is it, because I want to know before we go any further.

alright another hijack here since the fighting has stopped.

i drive a lot in "mountains" of wv and ky. we do a lot of rock crawling hill climbing (free way and trail) and creek trails up this way. i'm going to go with 2 sets of tires just so i can get a more aggressive tire for trail riding. i'm going to keep my stock rubi tires as my DD until they wear out then i'll go with a 35 there too, and go with a 35 maxxis creepy crawler tire. what gears should i go to? b/c i'll eventually move up to 37's when my job gets closer, but don't want to buy 3 sets of gears along the way. i can install them myself with the help of a friend so i won't have that cost. what would be my best gear choice? i have a 6spd, i don't intend on wasting my money on chips or exhaust. its obvious gears work the best, hell look at toyotas 20 RWHP gear the crap out of them and they'll climb a wall. plus HP = Breaking $hit

Just get D-60's and put 6.17's in, then run 40's Then just swap axles when running street tires.
