Default New guy new car

I have been reading the forums here for awhile and have posted a few times, but haven't uploaded a pic of my car yet. Here it is, 1990 LX, bone stock other than a Steeda shifter and a CD player. Not to sure where I am going with the car, stock or very close to stock, or just saying hell with it and modifying it. I just bought a set of 17" chrome cobra R's for it so there will be new pics this spring. Thanks for looking.

255/45zr/17 on the rear, 245/45zr17 on the fronts, i kind of like the 2.73 gear just because my gas mileage is in the 22mpg range on the highway, but if you guys thinks 3.73's are the ticket i may have to take you up on that.
