Default Which gears should I buy?

I have a 98 T/A M6 car. The car weighs 3,452lbs without me in it.
I have a 315/35-17 on it for daily use. I will eventually go with some 275/60-15s for track use.

My mods are pretty much mild bolt ons for now.
QTP 1 7/8 LTs
3in Y
Ls6 intake
ported throttle body
Tosta racing lid
Monster stage4 clutch
suspension
and tune.

Within the next year I plan to go with mildly ported 241s, ms3 or a 233/239 on a 113lsa, and a 150 shot.

I am ordering a Moser 9" with 35spline axles and spool. Should I go with 3.89s or 4.11s?

I have 4.10s in my 10bolt right now and it doesn't bother me while hwy driving. I rarely get on the interstate, but when I do I cruise between 70 and 75.

Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance, Justin.

I would say 4.11s since you have something similar and you like the feel of it. 35 spline, are you getting the wavetrac?

Overkill with 35 spline axles and spool imo. If it used as a daily you will hate having a spool.

Definitely 4.11s. With a 28" tire, they will work well.
