Re: Tire Size Fit
You can put those tires on stock rims, but its pushing the limits. If you run anything wider than a 8-9 inch wheel and 4.5 inches or less you will have some good rubbage. Id just get the 6 inch lift. As for the tires, while I love the looks, they are really loud and dont last very long. If you want my .02 get Toyo Open Country MT's. As for gearing, if you have 3.73's is liveable, but your tranny and rear end will eventually hate you.... You do lose some power and mileage but its not awful. Im glad I regeared. Regearing is also a good way to get rid of the GM G80 locker, which in my opinion is a timebomb waiting to explode.

Re: Tire Size Fit
How hard is it to regear? Can it be done at home?

Re: Tire Size Fit
I couldnt and wouldnt do it. But when it comes to that work, I have never claimed to know alot... Many guys do it themselves, there are a few tools that the avg. shadetree mechanic doesnt have but Im not sure which ones they are. Most say the rear is quick and easy, but the fron requires major dis-assembly of the front suspension and removal of the diff. Id say unless you are very comfortable with the wrenches, leave it to the pros. It takes a full day for a professional to do the front and back.
