Dont know much about gearing but I suppose you could change the wheel/tyre size .
But this may affect the speedo but I am sure that sombody will tell us either way

Changing the tyres will effect the gearing.
I swapped to General Grabber AT2 215/70R16, increased round cleaence and upped the gearing at the same time. This turned top gear into overdrive, so be careful. :doh:
