What are you guys doing about gear ratios with these huge tires? These cars need more gear and you're giving them less with more diameter in rubber.

But yes, my 3.55 gears with my 28.3" tires give me an equivalent to having 3.37 gears. Pretty tall, but with the supercharger, it's not a problem. I believe the default gear ration for most new Mustang GTs is 3.31, including the GT500. But yeah, that's a little tall.
