AWith 3.92 , 31x10.5x15 are pretty much the norm, 235/75/15 are a pretty
norm tire for 3.55(GenIIs) Performance wise you will see a decrease in take
off power/torque at the rear wheels vy changing the tire size larger. Its
as if you stayed at 235 and changed your gears to 2.7x's
check out http://www.4lo.com and use some of their little calculators and
charts to get a better understanding of whats happens when you change your
tires/gears.
