I found myself going to 3rd on some of the bigger hills up here in the poconos on 33x12.5s, where I used to have to shift to 4th to hold 70-75 with 31x10.5s. But then again, I also had a cracked head at the time.

When I went turbo, not only could I leave it in 5th, but I'd still have plenty of get up to accelerate up to 80 on the same hills. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Around town, it's just fine, but I'm speaking for a 5spd, maybe different if you have an Auto.
