According to the calculators, with my .067 OD, I'll only be pulling 3000 at 75 mph. Not bad at all. Thats the same as my 3.73 equipped 25.5 inch height tire'ed lx 5.0 used to do.

I picked gears based on hwy rpms at 75 mph. I love being in the power band in OD.

I get (or used to get, I should say ! =P ) sursprisingly good traction for a 5.0. I'll just have to remember to be careful with how I punch the gas in the middle of turns and such stuff. I might find myself throwing sandbags in the back soon!

How big of a radial will fit in these stock tire wells? I wouldnt mind upping the tiresize a bit.
