4.88's and 32's??

I'm running 32x11.50 ProComp A/T's right now on my 5 speed 93 4runner. I just came across some tax money and I'm curious as to whether or not running 4.88s will be too much for this set up.

I plan on going to 33's but would it be better to get the gears now and get the tires when my funds allow me?? If it matters, most of my driving is highway. Thanks for any help.

4.56 or 4.88s will run fine with 32s. if you plan on getting 33s, then stick with the 4.88s

Well, you are running the 3.4 so you have a power advantage over my 3.sl0w.

My biggest concern is the fact that I do a lot of highway driving and am a poor college student. So I probably won't be able to do tires until next summer. Should I just wait until then to do gears as well?? or will I be fine with 4.88's now?? Thanks guys. (As you can tell this money is burning a hole in my pocket )
