Question?
I bought a 98 GT about 2 months ago and love it. Since buying it I've put some wheels on it, x-pipe with flows,and a k&n air filter on it. Me and my wife love it but the take off power kinda let me down. This guy I work with said to put some 3:73's under it but then another guy said to put 4:11's. Can anyone tell me which is best. Also I thought about putting some 1 inch wheel spacers on it, can anyone help me with that? Is that a good idea? My wife wants to lower it a little I was just wondering how much? Thanks for anything.[/list]

Is this a 5-Speed car?
What are your future plans for the car? If you are not going to add a poweradder then 4.10's are what you want... If you plan on doing a power adder then go with 3.73's... If it is an auto I say 4.10's all the way... |

I personally don't like wheel spacers. But that's just me, I think they cause more trouble then they are worth.
For the drop it depends on if you buy new wheels or are going to be a serious drag car or what. WELCOME TO MM!!! |

if you plan on going forced induction later on go with the 3.73 but if your gonna stay n/a put some 4.10 in it. do not use wheel spacers as they are unsafe

The car is an automatic. The car will be an everyday car, but will the 4:11s really hurt my gas mileage?

4.10's really wont make the much difference in the MPG...Like 2-3 mpg less then what you get with your stockers...

Thanks for the help. I still don't know what to do about the spacers, I bought the wheels and I'm not satisified with how they look on the back. It just looks like it has that sunk in look.
