everything you need to know is here.

if you still don't know for sure after looking at the charts here, go to Richmond Gear's website, and use their street gear calculator. take your car out of overdrive (so that your top gear ratio is 1:1), note your speed and RPM, and measure your tire diameter. punch this into the Richmond calculator, and BAM! your gear ratio is displayed. it will not be an exact calculation because you cannot see EXACTLY what RPM or MPH you're turning, and can't measure your tires EXACTLY, but its estimation will be close enough to one of the factory ratios for you to figure it out. have fun.
