Tires VS Gears
Right now i am running 39.5 truxus sts with 5.71 gears. I am thinkin about going to a 36' mud country. How much will this affect gears shoudl i go down to a 5.29 or stay with a 5.71. How much does anyone think it will affect my mileage . Right now i get 15-16. Thanx

Gear Calculators
here are some gear calculators you can play with:
5.29's would be just about perfect with 36's but I would run a couple of tanks to see how you do before spending the coin on regearing..5.71's and 36's just might be the sweet set up...
Here are a couple of gear calculators that you can you to figure real world rpm's with assorted gears and tire sizes:
