Does anybody here have a 3.6 with a 6 speed MT and 35” tires with stock Sport gearing? I’m looking to drive one a bit to judge the effect on performance before I go with 35s. I’d be glad to come to you and let you drive mine just as a show of trust.

Thanks so much to anybody who’s willing to help. I’m based in NYC but would travel a couple of hours for the opportunity.

We fixed a sahara on 35s and 6 speed that started at another shop. In my opinion, it needed a regear bad. Driveability sufferer terribly and was in 4th most of the time on the highway

Super helpful, thank you. Will stick with 33s.

My manual Sport S (with stock height and 315s): daily driving on flat isn’t that bad. I don’t feel any lags. However when going up mountain passages and big hills it’s painful; lots of downshifting. Only after a trip to upstate New York I felt the lagging! I am not thinking of re-gearing as yet. Maybe later.
