** The effect to the final-drive (
d-eff
) of going from a tire diameter of
28.9 to 33 inches is an estimated ratio of 2.697, which will create a fair-
ly noticeable loss in your four-wheeler pickup from a stop or while roll-
ing down the highway. To get back to a similar responsiveness on the
new 33 inch diameter tires, you would want to install a set of final-drive
gears closer to a 3.5 ratio (
d-eQV
).
next, calculate the effect of the tire change to your speedome-
ter. you made the switch to the 33 inch tires, and you want to
know what your actual speed will be with an indicated (gauge)
speed of 65 MPH.
