What Gear Ratio do I Have?

Tires are pretty good. Probably 75% and they're all terrain, but stock size. Maybe someone else would need to know exactly which gear ratio they have, but I'm just wanting to know what mine is just because. It's possible that they previous owner changed it, but I kind of doubt it. It seems to run at 1600-1700 at 60 mph, so based on what ya'll are saying about rpm's, I'm thinking it's 3:73. I'll check the tag and if I really want to be certain, I'll count the teeth. Thanks everyone!

It won't be very accurate if you are on 40's. It is a great rough estimate if you are confirming a gear ratio and on stock tires, but smaller or bigger tires will skew the data.

The method he suggested use doesnt matter how large or small the tires. Gear ratio is constant. So by spinning the tire once the drive will spin faster. RPM calculation is dependent on several other factor such as engine as transmission.
