First you need to address whether it's an auto or manual, tire size, 1500/2500/3500 and engine

^^+1. Unless you're looking to bump up tire size in the future or make a slow old truck slightly less slow or make it more dedicated as a work truck/tow rig you're better off keeping the 3.55s for those tires

Ya, thats like a 31x10.5 tire. Not big at all. I'm running 3.55's with 33x12.5 tire. Now that sucks with a ****** high mileage 318.
