3:73 or 4:10's w/ a T5

Will a 4:10 gear be too low for a T5 and 26" tall tires? At 60mph in fifth gear what RPM range am i looking at?

At 60 mph with 3.73 you will be a hair under 2000 revs. 4.10's will be about 200 rpm higher. If highway is an integral part of your driving 3.73's might be suited. If not, I would say 4.10 all the way.
