Default 4.30 and 4.56 gears?

hey guys, i was looking for some gears and i went to american muscle and they had 4.30 and 4.56 gears, would that be a retarded idea? i was initially planning on 4.10's. i do drive about 70 miles of freeway a week. but i am honestly not really that concerned with gas milage, for some reason my V6 only gets 17mpg as it is so its not like it can get to much worse...

Those gear ratios wouild work well with high-RPM motors. so if you have upgraded your valvetrain to rev 6800-7000 RPM they might make sense.
Otherwise not really the correct gear for your car.
