True, too much, that is a 30.75 inch tall tire, compared to a 295/50/15 which
is 26.5 inches tall. I have a horsepower program I could send you that
calculates all tire sizes and tranny gear speeds with certain tires installed
if you want it, or I'll post it to the page for anyone to download, simple
yet extremely effective. I run 245/60/15 with a 3.91 gear ratio which gives
me a true 4.13 ratio on the ground. Your 3.55's would be reduced to around
3.00.
