Go as low as you can (numericaly high). 5.29's would be good.

I'd prolly do the 4.88's. Mud tends to like wheel speed for floatation purposes (or at least tall-skinny tires) as opposed to rocks liking torque to climb over things. On the other hand, you've got 35's and a higher ratio (numerically speaking) letting you spin the tires faster may be a good thing- just got to be in the right gear.

It is a 22R though. You are not going to spin 35 very fast no matter what you do .
