Default 35's and crawl ratio?

There is a lot of info on 35's and gears / mpg performance. My question is I will still have my rubi's 32's and would like to wheel on some 35's. Don't care about onroad perforemance. But love 1st gear crawl on 32s. Is crawl still ok on 35's ( like idling over rocks on stock tires. Will use 32's on the street.

My Rubi 6spd on 35s still crawls very well just working the clutch. It changed just a tad off road versus the stock tires. if i was in a real rocky area and planned on crawling awhile, i think i might just use my superchips to bump the idle speed up a 200rpm or so. Just to see how it was.

Norcal is almost all rocks and I don't want to regear. Plan on a superchips at the same time. So you would suggest this combo. Really need more clearance but like my warrenty. If not will just go 33's and drag myself over!
Thanx
