If I go to a 20X11X8, how much is this going to effect the final drive ratio? What sprocket should be changed and by how much? Do you think the Mojave in stock trim can pull a higher gear, it seems like it to me?

dropping from 22 to 20 inch tires will effectively make your gearing lower. without doing all the math I would guess that going up one tooth on the frt to a 13 would probably put you close to stock ratio again. Then if you want to gear higher drop a few teeth on the rear, I would try a 40 tooth.

One other thing, you mentioned 20x11x8 tires, you can not run smaller than 10 inch diameter wheels on the mojave unless you change the hubs. you can use hubs from a honda 200sx if you want to run smaller wheels. they will work with 9" but I'm not sure about 8". It is much easier to use 20x11x10 tires.

Glad you mentioned that before I made a purchase, that would have sucked! I was going to get an 8" so I kept some side wall but I guess a 10" really would be better since there would be less flex.

Is there a place online that carries the sprockets I would need? I've checked a few spots and finding parts for the Mojave isnt real easy.
