Well, I'm droppin' the Dakota soon (Full Hotchkis). Currently, I have 4.10
gears, with 275/60R17. I'm thinking about going with 275/55R17's, but am
getting worried about the gears! Currently I'm running these RPM's at MPH:
70MPH - 2410
80MPH - 2755
90MPH - 3099

With the new tires, I'd be running:
70MPH - 2501
80MPH - 2859
90MPH - 3216

Is this ok? How much will this hurt my mileage? How about a 1/4 mile run?
Would it improve it, or hurt it? Any advice is welcome! Thanks for your
help!
