Try this tool. It should give a good idea.

You can just change the speedo gear on the VSS unit. Here's a link to a TDR advertiser that has them... http://www.ricksontruck.com/speedometer.html



You can look at 285/70R19. 5 which have a diameter of 35" to select the correct gear.

Thanks for the help guys, this is GOOD information to share.



Next problem :{ is to get a lift to stop the tires from rubbing.

a leveling kit oughta do it. rear should be fine for clearance at stock height. Depending on the wheel offset, front should be fine with 2" lift. either D25 Skyjacker coils or 2" spacers will work, you'll need front shocks as well.
