Maybe start with a 3.545 ;) after all we dont want to spoil the look of the ride by going larger tires! :)

I picked up a 3.5 diff today. Tempted to put it in ...

Since the A12 handles 4400 so well, I decided to do the speed limit coming back home. 4700 rpm @ 70 mph (112 kph). The speedometer is off so it reads 130 kph. But I was only doing 112.

So my trip is now complete. 4 hours at 4400, 1 hour at 4700.

Final ratio: 4.11
Transmission: 4-speed
Tire diameter: 19.1 inch
