Mind telling us how tall the tire is?

Ok, for comparison sake:

26" tall tire + 3.73 gear = 19" tall tire + 2.73 gear
28" tall tire + 3.73 gear = 20.5" tall tire + 2.73 gear
30" tall tire + 3.73 gear = 22" tall tire + 2.73 gear
33" tall tire + 3.73 gear = 24" tall tire + 2.73 gear
36" tall tire + 3.73 gear = 26" tall tire + 2.73 gear


So is it possible, sure. Is it likely you are going to do that, no.
