How does that work for you with 3.73's and 44's? I guess you just use the granny gear as an actual first gear now and 4th is more or less an overdrive?

Haha...yeah they werent my first choice of wheel and werent the best looking but were cheap. Where Im living if you want wheels for these trucks you have to pay big money. I notice in the states theres so many options available....everyone here drives japanese trucks so to be different costs.

^ Those butt ugly wheels aren't intended for our good looking trucks!
