Which one is better?

Went to the biggest truck shop by me today, they told me 4.56 are a waist of time and to do 4.88. Even with it being a daily driver the 4.88s would be better with 37 inch tires. what do yall think?
Ordered the new tires 37x12.5x17 goodyear mtr kevlars, think i got a good price 250 a peice
thanks for all the info guys

What gears are you running now? Either way, I'd have to agree that 4.88's match well with 37" tires.
