Incase you believed the 33% more torque... not true.. You just rev up faster due to the turning ratio of the gears. it in no way adds power. just puts you up in your power band faster. This will be one of the best bang for the buck mods you can do this early on and for 200 on the install, do it! Thats a great deal.I went with 3.73's and love them.
I did all of "bolt ons" without taking stuff out of the car, removing anything like sway bar and i got my car down to 13.55. Seeing you also have a GTS its possible! I am also running 315's. Each car is different and its hard to tell. some say they fit fine and dont rub, but from my experiance they did rub! had to beat the inner fender well a little bit so it didnt eat my tires up lol.. some 275 Drag radials would be more then enough but for looks, 315's! ;p
And for the wheel spin in higher gears, it could be that the wheels are spinning way faster in second/third gear then they are in first
Takes a bit for them to slow back down to where the tire can actually get grip again.
