HEy guys, umm i am thinking about doing a lot of stuff to my X in a year, when i graduate and get into a college. One of the things i wanna do is get new gears. I have noticed that there are like different ratio's or numbers or something like that. i was having trouble and was just totally lost, what do those numbers mean anyways?

Here check this link.

NICE thanx dude

Your 04 XE will have the 4.90:1 ratio already, only one more step available: 5.14:1 and those really aren't called for until you go beyond 33" tires.

FYI,
