As lame and spoiled as this sounds my parents lost a bet (my college grades...it's a long story) my parents have agreed to buy me 22's and I plan on getting 305/45/22's which translate to 33's.

You have just convinced me to get 4.56's. Someone was telling me people were topping out at 90-95 with 4.56 gears.

Tell me about how it was with your 30" tires. Seems like it would be fun peeeeeeling out for awhile.

Yikes that doesn't seem fun at all. I'll make sure to get wheels before gears I suppose.

I wonder if a set of traction bars would have helped you any.
