    IMO the gearing will be absoloutely fine. The speedo will be almost dead on and the gearing increase in 1st low wont be that noticeable
    My boo boo pushed wrong numbers, to early in the morning, to much wine last night

    You'll be almost spot on with your speedo if you run these...

    You'll hardly notice it, and towing will be fine, I ran this size and towed 2+ tonne a lot

    Chip the engine will remove all concerns
