Lower gears
Looking to swap my 3.55s for 4.10s. I run 35s now after the swap I was thinking that my fuel mileage wouldn't drop like crazy it would almost be like running stock tires with 3.55s. Any opinions appreciated

You probably need the 4.56 with the 35"s
I run 4.10s in my truck with the little stock tires...lol
And still get about 15 or so MPG on the highway.
