    Talking 3.73 OR 3.91 Gears??

    OK
    06 M6 GTO with all the basic bolt-on's. Wheels are 19" with 275/30/19 tires in rear. I want to change out the gears next but cant decide on going with 3.73 or 3.91....Anyone's input would be appreciated! Thanks!

    The norm for a M6 seems to be 4.10s.

    Not for a Goat.

    Anyways if you plan on keeping the 19's then stay with the 3.73. With the 3.91's it will just make it spin worse.
    Don't be afraid of the bottle!!! Be afraid of your tune!!!

    Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiise from the dead....

    Thread necro.

    Anyway, was doing a search for R&P info and came across this post.

    What's the general consensus on this? I've been toying with going 4.10's (I never fear the gear), but was a bit hesitant due to the side effect of more wheel hop.

    It's one of those things I want to do, but don't need to do. Also, my goals have really changed. I don't want to just be able to make a straight line as fast as possible (i.e. drag strip), I want it to handle the curves along the way. So, in that respect, I'm probably best to leave the stock 3.55's in it.
