Unless your going for a timeslip, you may wanna consider 3.73's OR are you running a tire taller then 26 inches?

If this is a car that is going to go to the track and around town a little bit go with the 4:10. If you want to enjoy it on the highway and still get some kind of decent gas mileage go 3:73. just my opinion
