I don't know anything of how the ecoboosts' respond to bigger tires compared to my old 99 with a 5.4. With mine and 35's, regearing was needed to get the pep back in her step. With the better torque of the EB's, is a rear-gearing as necessary?

Thanks man! Retail was almost 5 grand for the wheels/tires. I got a major hookup though.

My truck has 3.73s from the factory, it really is fine. I had a 2007 fx2 with the 5.4L before this truck. They are night and day. The EB is a different animal.
