Im fitting 31" tyres to my Vitara swb... what will the gearing be like after? is low still low?

OR is there a way of gearing the vitara down?

It a 100% off-road offoader, never touches tarmac and never needs to go very fast at all....

Thanks for any advice in advance.

how low do you want to go?

a rocklobster might be an answer if you want to go REALLY low

its an ultra low 4wd setup thatll give you about 20mph flat out in top gear in 4wd.

theres a few companies offer it

You can't do a rocklobster on a vit can you? Just sj? But it seems liie too much work to me!
Dave suggested a trail tough setup? In a standard vit box?
