22re+5speed+4.10gears+tire size?
ok, so i have a stock height pickup with a recently rebuilt 22re with a 5 speed and i make it out (from the code) to have 4.10 gears front and rear
right now it has 31" tires with 4.10s, it drives good exp going up hill in 5th- which i have to downshift
so how would my truck do still at stock height with some 33x10.5s?
how will this effect my power when i have some weight in the bed/ hitch as well
EDIT: ok im reopening this- i did some research and i found out that when the guy put the 31s on my truck. he never adj the speedo, so i made a little chart of my speeds based on what my speedo says, what im actually going at with the 31s, and what i would be going with 33s..... also- i just measured my tire-fender clearance, and my rear is a god 1.5 inches higher (obv due to pickup) but do they sell leveling kits for that?
this is all @ 3000rpm (where i usually shift)
........speedo
gear...says......31".......33"
1........15........17........18
2........28........31........33
3........44........48........52
4........61........67........71
5........72........79........84
based on that info- i dont think that 33s will show that much of a difference when driving- yes it will be slower, but i dont think it will be that noticable

When I ran 33s with 4.10 gears it was pretty close power wise to 31s on flat ground. When I was on hills I could feel the loss of power. With 31s I would climb a hill in 4th gear and with 33s I would be in 3rd.
If you are getting 33s for offroad use you can always run cheap 31s off of craigslist and put on the 33s when you go offroad.
I have 5.29 gears and run 32s on the street and 37s offroad.

i dont keep pace with traffic on hills with the 31s... heck even in my brothers cherokee i wouldnt keep pace with traffic (although i did fall farther behind in the toyo)
i dont mind not keeping pace, but i dont want the truck to be unsafely slow- or make it impossible to tow anything if i ever needed to
