BIGGER TIRES

I'm huge on proper gearing and already not sure about the 3.55's. That's a higher gear than I would normally run but being unfamiliar with the transmission and after driving one seems to work good. I like the look of the 37's will probably go with a 35" tire. Does anyone have 35's that can post pics? Guys who have made the tire changes-how much of an issue re calibrating speedo etc? Already reading about the camber issues/vibration in another thread. Im not a fan of the idea of creating problems I don't need. I would like to run a 35 if possible. The gearing could quite possibly be a non-issue with all the additional power of the 17 SD?

Your thoughts......

There is 4 topics already about tires and they have pictures. 37" appear to fit and 35" no issues. I have not seen anything on recalibrating speed though.

Aren't the stock tires already 34"to almost 35" tall already. I think alot of guys really want a wider tire and just assume they'll naturally go taller.

I hear ya. Briefly read through them all. Looks like a lot of guys are going 37's. Im leaning on going 35's and haven't seen much on them so started this thread with hopes of someone having 35's posting pics. Curious to know what these guys are doing on the speedo fix or are they just living with it being off a few MPH.
