got a truck with 3.23 gear and 29x15.5x15 M/Ts

they measure 27 1/2" tall...(do not know why its called a 29" tire?)

at 2000rpm its at 55mph

if I go to a 3.91 gear,what is the rpm going to go up to at 55mph?

what size tire would work the best with a truck and 3.91s for the street

318/360 heads/stock intake-Q-jet
258/264-.485/.485 lift 60710 voodoo roller cam
904 lock up with a stock HS tc

guess I am just asking if that tire is too small for a 3.91 gear

thanks for helping

This too if you don't know the height of the tire, but know the size

3.91 you can almost double the tach reading and be fairly close. IE: 3500 = 70 MPH.
