do you have the manual or the aw4?

from my understanding...4.10s will be okay for 33s and still better than stock for 35s but the 4.56 will be a happy medium for both... BUT...you will get better cruising mileage with the 4.10s.

If you are still undecided what tire size you are going with I would go with 4:56's. If you do 4:10's you will regret it if you go with 35's...

456s and 35s puts you at stock ratio, 410s will be too high and kill your mileage.
