Well, in theory the 4.10's are a very good gear ratio for a bolt-on M6. The problem is that the 4.10's in the 7.x" 10-bolts are weak. If you plan on using it as a DD then you should be fine, but if you plan on pursuing any kind of strip activity then you'll probably want to consider a 12-bolt or equivalent (of course that's true whether you want a gear change or not).
