Gear ratio


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hello everyone. I just joined the site. Looking for a good gear ratio for my 2011 Chevy Silverado 1500. Went to a gear ratio calculator to find the best one. Imputed my info (stock tires 265/65R18, new tires 37/12.5R20 and current gear ratio 3.42). It says my new gear ratio should be 4.01. Before using the calculator I was thinking about going with 4.56 or 4.88 gears. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

4.10 or 4.56 if you’re mostly highway go 4.10 if you split between highway and city 4.56. You’ll be amazed post swap. It will seem like a different truck. Please keep us posted.

4.56 was what I was leaning towards the most to get rid of the sluggishness that the big tires caused. Thanks for your input Darksky. I'll repost how it goes when it's finished.
