Default 4.30s Holy Smokes!!

I've been on a few others boards just tryin to get as many opinions as possible on my situation right now (dont worry this is still my favorite board lol) and i was told from another board that instead of 4.10s i should go with 4.30s!! They said that 4.10s are a waste and that i should fear the gear and go with 4.30s. I was kinda worried about gettin the 4.10s at first instead of 3.73s, but i've been told that since i do nothing but city driving that my mileage wouldnt suffer minimum if at all. But 4.30s!? What are opinions on these?? Am i going to be hurting in the mileage, are they too much??
