Re: Rear Gear Ratio

WOW, you bit hard !!

I have had all sizes on the rear of my AD's and I found the 275 to rub inside and outside of the rear fenders and box, the 255 gives me the best clearence (with a rear sway bar) on the bed and fenders with 8" wheels.
Those trucks are very light on the rear so a LOT of tire will help with the HP.
