my 98 with a 12 bolt (4.11's), macs, and a lid could lite the 245 khumo's i had right up...

i might keep the gears you have just to get a bit of traction on the streets..

street tire traction w/ 4.10 gears hah hah. you'll be doing alot of 40 mph roll races. I break my 275 bfg KD's loose at 30 but once you get a grip it's awesome but with drag radials it will be sweet :burn: :drive:

I break my 295s loose with 3.75s in 1st and 2nd.....don't even want to think about the "fun" I would have trying to hook up with 4.10s.... :)

i have nittos. with 430hp and 3.73's they don't really bust loose,i hook good. thats why i thought with 4.10's it would'nt be to bad.

thanks for all the replies. it sounds like the 4.10's gets no traction. i'll just keep my 3.73's,i really dont have traction problems and dont want to get any. thanks all.
