With stock tires you're fine for now. Most people say 4.56 feels good with 33"s, it should be closest to stock gearing "feel." Some people go with 4.88s for just a little extra, that's what I'm planning on doing, also because I'm gonna move up to 35"s

You're probably not going to tell a huge difference in 3.73 vs 4.10. I'd go for 4.56 and 33's if you're planning to jump up in tire size.
