I have a lightning blue 17 GT premium 5.0 convertible California Special that I bought used with 9,500 miles on it.
It came with 3:31 gears
I had Ford 3:73 gears installed
Corsa Xtreme catback exhaust
Eibach front and rear sway bars
Michelin 4S 255/40x19 on the front and
Michelin 4s 275/40x19 on the rear
I also have FRP cai level2 kit to be installed soon

I am VERY happy with the mods so far.
The sway bars did a great job at flattening the car out and the ride stayed the same as well
The tires are world's better than the P-zero nero's in every manner
The biggest surprise is the exhaust. I had an aftermarket flowmaster on my corvette and the drone was awful. This Corsa is AMAZING. Loud as hell when you romp on the gas but mostly quiet when cruising along.

You are running 275's on the rear.... Are you using the OE rims?

Yes oem rims. Stock size was 255/40x19
The tire place said everything looked great (I bought the tires elsewhere and they installed them) They said the 20mm larger was not an issue on the California oem rims

Nice list of mods. You should look into some shocks and springs next. A nice performance set will improve the handling even more, and give the car a nice stance.
