Well I will be needing new tire in about 6 to 7k miles and I'm looking at what size tire to go with 37x13.5 or go with the 40x13.5. Also would 4.88 gears be about the right size for 40s?
Can any help?????????

if you go with 40s, then 5.13 gear ratios would be better.

Well I'm think about letting my friend do a SFA swap if I do. If I do I think I will go with 40s. I do have 4.88 in now and my speedo is 10 over so I'm thinking maybe 40s will put my speedo closer to being on.

gears are about getting your power and milage correct, not your spedo. just have your spedo recalibrated be the dealer to fit your tires and it'll be dead on. 5.13s would be good for any tires 40"+.

I don't think the dealer can recalabrate them eather. I don't know I see what goes on. He has a friend that builds rock crawlers and he uses 5.13 so he is going to talk to him and see what he says.
