Default 33's and 3.55 gears

I'm just wanting to hear from any of you guys that have 33's with the lower 3.55 ratio differentials. Do you still have adequate power? Hows the fuel economy? If you could go back would you still do 33's or drop down to 32's? Thanx fellas.

33's and anything less than a 3.73 or so ratio is hell. It feels like your always pulling a trailer. Honestly 33's suck without at least a 4.10 or better

I have 32's and had 3.55's, even with 32's it was lagging, but the 4.10's I have now rip.......gear swap is the single biggest improvement I have had, i wish I would have done it before anything else.
