yea, you'll see some loss in accel- alot more rolling resistance there with 35's but that edge should give you enough umph to keep a smile-

You will notice a difference. How much, depends on your powertrain. In other words if you have a 5.4 with 3.73 gears, it won't be as noticable as if you had a 4.6 with 3.55 gears.

Edge will help out especially since you can add your tire size into the Edge computer. I changed my gears as well which is the best thing to do.

yes it will. and it will continue killing your power & will continue shifting improperly until you replace your gears
