Not only that... But STICKY's help too [&o]

Personally I think 4:30's are too steep... I'd go 4:10's...

4.10's all the way 4.30's are too steep IMO, I love my 4.10's. Some people say to stick with 3.73's with a manual but i have driven a manual with 3.73's and a manual with 4.10's and nothing compares to the 4.10. The only other thing i can say is that Dsmfighter is right on, u will benefit well from some sticky tires especially with a manual transmission

I've had them both...still have the 4.30's....If you're staying N/A you really can't go wrong either way. From personal experience the difference is not THAT big between the 2. Personally I like the .30's just a bit more than the 4.10's....
Can't really go wrong either way.

like he said,, if youre already considering 4.10's, you ought to seriously consider 4.30s just for the hell of it

assuming you dont travel 1000s of miles on the interstate at 85+ mph, you should be alright,,

and liek theyve said already, if you hope to benefit racing from a dig with your gears, DR's are a must, unless you are very skilled
