yes it will turn the tires over night and day difference. you'll def see an increase in mpg also. dont expect a LOT (consider that a 10% increase, which is pretty substantial is only about 1 mpg). I didnt even notice a loss in mpg on the highway.

Before you go ordering, why not check the boards classifieds here. I bought my 456s, bearing kit and Auburn LSD from a guy on DT. I saved about 400 bux doing it also. Just a thought.
