5.83 if you can get them  ::) Calmini will have the front one and put your name down with Boondox Motorsports for their rear bulk order otherwise you will be limited to 5.125's from the 1.6 Vit. If you were in the US you could have hunted around and tried to find some rare 5.38's or 5.62's.  If yours is a manual you should have 4.62's or if it's auto then 4.875's as stock. Changing the t-case gears for something like Trail Toughs 4.2's will have a big impact offroad in low range.

Hi,

I replied to your PM but also keep in mind that idealy you are looking for 26spline sidegear fronts and 12 bolt rears to make life easy.
