actually 3.55s are also good for 33s. usually you can go up 5 to 7 % higher
on a new tire ( from the old tire height.) so a 31 inch tire + 5 to 7% is
very close to a 33. if you do 5 % its a 32.55 so its a 1.55 difference and
for a 7% its a 33.17 so its a 2.17 difference. so a 2.55 gear set will in
fact accept a 33 inch tire without any p[roblems. granted a lower gear ratio
will work better 3.55s are ok
