Does anyone know if it’s best to regear your truck if u put size 33 tires on?
 
No way that I would go through the hassle and the expense for 33" tires. Now, if you wanted to go 35" or 37" and only have the 3.21 gears; then maybe. There is very little difference between the stock tire and 33's.
 
The front diff is the big hold up. Currently you'd have to find a used 3.92 front or buy new; expensive. For reference, I went to a 33 on 3.21's and couldn't tell a difference power wise. Mileage is the exact same. I did correct the speedo with the RC calibrator as well.

Good to know! I just put 35" Ridge Grapplers on my rig, and I can really feel the weight of the new shoes... She's slowed down quite a bit, I'm sad to say. I may seek a regear or tune.
