Q: What gear ratio should I be running with 35" tires?
A: In order to bring your Jeep's performance back to stock, you will need to run 4.88 gears with 35" tires. However, if you are looking for a little extra power, you should consider getting 5.13's. This is especially desirable if you have an automatic transmission.
I have 5.13's btw, if I had a 44 up frt , woulda went 5.38's

Also thanks JPop for the chart. Now I know I could go to 5.38s and I would be good across the band for larger tires in the future if I go bigger than 35s...oh wait, looks like if I did though I would have to change out the front axle
