Default help me pic a tire
Hey guys I am debating on the 26" or 28" tall tire. I have a m6 with LT, SLP lid, and 100 shot wet. Ford 9" and unsure of my gear selection yet, I either will go 3.55s or 3.73s.. Opinions?

At least 4.10s for either tire. I found this gear ratio calculator a while back it's very helpful for seeing the effects of tire and gear ratio changes.
