I have been debating on this for a few years. I have 3:55's sitting in my garage now, but I am wondering if 3:73's would be better? I have someone that will buy the 3:55's, so the money is not really an issue. With the mods in my sig, what gear would be the better choice for a mainly street Stang that see's around town dirving.

Mostly about personal preferance. I would opt for the 3.55s you already have but lots of guys will tell you 3.73s. Since you sed it was for around town driving mainly I would use 3.55s.

I love my 3.73's! I have basically the same set-up and they work for me.
