tire size without regearing axle

[gbarber11]

How big of tires could I go with a 2.5 liter 4 cylinder without having to re-gear my axles?

You'll lose some acceleration and top end with 31" tires, go up to 33" and it'll be a dog and you'll lose use of 5th gear. Many 2.5L owners run 33" tires without a problem, just have to get used to it.

agree. my brother had 32,s with is 4banger and my old boss had 33 n his. Off road in low its not that big of a deal, but on the street you will lose quite a bit of power.
