Guys who went to 35's . . .

I doubt the PCM is the solution anyway.

Then what is??

Based on the way GM thoroughly engineered the H3, 32" or 33" inch tires are optimal, since a gearing change is not readily available.

You would be incorrect. Just got back the H3 over the weekend, and it now drives great.

I'll do another post about it when I get a chance.

Good to hear it's downshifting less, which means the acceleration is that much slower than stock as engine lugs in higher gears.

question for you smart people. I am in the final stage of getting 35s but have one final question. I noticed most of you that have 35s have the adventure package which has the 4:1 transfer case. I dont have that, i have the basic.

I dont know what the gearing is in the base transfer case or how it would effect anything so this is my question. Would I, with the regular transfer case, notice any difference in perforemance (decrease due to the larger tires) more than you guys have or just the same?

Thanks,
Marin

Probably the same, but you're starting with less (in gearing) to begin with. IMHO

so what does that really mean, that i am starting with less gearing? In the t-case are the hi and low gears different from the base to the adventure or only the low? Thanks!

Only the low range gear ratio is different. The only gearing difference for day-to-day driving would be between a manual and an auto.
