It all depends on what you want out of your car and what you do with it. My 3.73's work great for me.

4.10!!!! I get the same gas mileage with 4.10s as I did with my stock gears because I don't get on it all the time, but when I do they kick ***!

TREMOR1521, do you have a auto or 5 speed? I would say that if you have a 5 speed get the 4.10's and if you have a auto get the 3.73's (espically if you do any highway driveing withthe auto) the following I got from another person on here that has a auto and 4.10's to give you a idea what you will be running at on the highway.
MPH - RPM
60 - 2300
70 - 2800
80 - 3100
85 - 3300
90 - 3500
Hope this helps clear it up a little if you have a auto

3.73's are a good street gear. You'll be glad when you gotta take a road trip somewhere and you're not revving the engine so much down the highway.

Werd to that Gee[8D] 3.73's are a good all-around gear. You could always go for 3.90's......that would be a good compromise.
