Which Speedo Pinion Gear? help!

OK, I've got 33" tires. Going from a 3.55 to 4.10.
Which speedo pinion gear (how many teeth) do I need to compensate?

The formula I have is this, not sure if it is right:

# of teeth = (265 x tire diameter in inches) / axle ratio

I get 2132.93 using this. Either I'm doing it wrong (I'm an artist by trade,
not an engineer), I'm smoking crack, or the formula is wrong. Help anyone?
thanks!
