Default 3:73's ????

Just wondering if anyone has 3:73's? Bein doin a bit of research and just wanting some input.... Reason im lookin at em, im tired of the stocks... Im definatly a highway cruiser so i dont want all out 1/4 mile but i want some more grab out of the rear end! Tires will also be swapped out soon so thats not in question yet.

It's a good hwy gear. I had them, went to 4.10's. You'll even see a big improvement w/ 3.55's.

good all around gears. I run 275/60-15 street tires and get good cruising rpm...but the car still launches good with 26x10 slicks.

3.73's arent bad. As far as I'd go for the highway though.

best gear out there IMO.

i went to 3.55's because my Cobra IRS came with them, and its a bit different to switch and IRS gearset than an SRA...
