Gear Ratio & Tire Size Chart

Good "rule of thumb" calculation is to multiply .12 by your tire diameter. (.12 X 38" = 4.56)
 

The below table can be used to get a rough idea on gear ratios. The colors represent ideal RPMs at highway speeds (65). For highway cruising and best fuel economy stay towards the yellow (2600 rpm), around town daily driving is color coded green (2800 rpm), and for better towing power or just more 4-low power use the ratios near the red (3100 rpm). These calculations are assuming a manual transmission with a 1:1 ratio. If you drive an automatic your RPMs will be slightly higher, and the opposite is true if you have overdrive (your RPMs will be slightly lower).
