Bigger tires=less power?

I had a 01 ho, 6spd with 315's and 4.10's, like driving and tractor. I now drive and 02 with the same tires and 3.55's, feels like it was made for it. Not near the difference I felt when I put 285's on my poweer stroke.

4.10s and 35s are just about perfect.

50mph 4th gear getting sideways on wet pavement is always fun lol.

I too have a 3.55 rearend.Went from stock 265's to 285's then 315 BFG's. Yes I noticed a difference with the 315's but with all the torque we have it works. When my tranny gives out I'll go from there on the rebuild.
