Just had my Wrangler smog checked today which is required in California every two years to re-register. The first thing out of the tech's mouth was, " Have you had a re-gear to match the 33" tires?" Oooookay, what's the difference, thought you were checking smog on the engine. He said that in CA now they have to run the vehicle at a given RPM and speed and that it has to capable of being done in either 2nd or 3rd gear (on a standard transmission. Not sure of the process on an auto.) He went on to say that if it couldn't be done, it automatically failed the smog test. Fortunately, I had lower dif gears already installed, but I thought of the many many people who are running around with over-sized tires that haven't.
So if your 4x4 is registered in CA...just a heads up....
