33s TIRE HELP

the only reason to ever have 16.5" wheels is if you plan on running used hmmwv tires all the time, and you get some used hmmwv wheels and get them re-centered and turned into beadlocks.

dude, I put it all in one post, and it was posted by others. 5x4.5 IS YOUR BOLT PATTERN. 5 lugs by 4.5 inches.
 






i run 4:10's with 33's and it feels like stock with stock tires, and i also get 20 mpg or better on the highway so gears are worth the trouble,
but for a cheaper gear option just find a set of 4:10 axles used for alot less than buying new gears and having them installed,

look for axles here, , http://www.car-part.com/
 






The regearing always depends on what came on it stock. I have had X's with 3.73s, 4.10s, and 3.27s. I ran 31s on the Ex with a 3.73 for years including many 4-wheeling trips to Moab and Colorado and it was fine. Put those 31s on the Ex with the 3.27s and I would have had to get out and :bsnicker: push to get started at lights and stop signs.
