I did not care about the gas mileage what so ever so I can not comment on that. Drivability was better with the 4.10's. Not shifting as much in traffic. 5th gear is an overdrive gear and with the 4.30's it was like it was 4th.

I am sure if I would have given it more time or figured out how to launch on them, I may have liked them but like mentioned I broke them at the track and decided to go back to the 4.10's.

With my new clutch and drag radials I could not hook, kept spinning out of the hole.

This is just my take and my experance with 4.30's. Others have had success, I did not.
What is your top speed with the 4:10 ratio? I personally love to kick those ricers butt with top end speed at or near 150 mph. lol
