Some searching? your tranny shouldnt be acting weird from just a set of 33s

Do you mean it feels like a lack of power after your new tires?

Sorry for the grammatical error. Typing on the phone can prove difficult. It has seemed like quiet a difference since the add of the tires. I know that is a normal occurrence, i did use the search feature and found some good material. Wondering though should i spend the money on 4.10 or should i go bigger? There has to be a substantial diff btwn 3.55's and 4.10's....right??

You shouldn't need anything stronger than 4.10's with the 6 speed.

I was talking about you saying your tranny was searching, not about the sites search feature. Lol

Aw my bad. It seems to me that it shifts more to me. Its my first six speed so that could be it, but i dont necessarily like the down shifting when going up grade. Maybe im being too critical i dont know.

4.10s would be a good match with 33s if you never intend to go up to 35s. If you intend to go up to 35s, I would wait until then and get 4.56s. 4.10s would be good for 35s on the interstate, but in town and hilly terrain they're a little light. I have 4.56s and 35s on my 2006 and I love them. I get 15mpg interstate and 17-18mpg on 2-lane highways going about 60mph. My gryphon says I get about 17mpg in town too.

Man i do agree w ya on the gears. I was thinkin ab going ahead and getting 4.56 and just running those. I dont think it would be too hard on the 6-speed. Id be kinda jumpy w those 33's but i might as well go ahead a prepare.
