3.0 with 32's?? Help
I have a 2001 xlt 3.0 4x4 with 4.10 gears. Will 32x11.5x15 be ok. It is just a daily driver and minor offroading. thanks

Doesn't matter. Stock ratio is normally 3.73 for a 3.0. With 4.10 and the bigger tires you should be fine.

should be much happier than one with stock gears. My truck with 33's and 3.55 hates life.

Look at the axle code in the door jamb or the tag on the rear diff. It will tell you waht the ratio its. That whats important. "Stock" can mean 3.27, 3.73, 4.10
