you probably should put 488s in if you want highway speeds

what gears does it have? I have 4.88's with 33's and a 3.0 and highway isn't bad. Hills slow me down a little and every time I drive highways, which is about once or twice a month, it's one more reason for a 3.4 swap...

Manual or auto?

Manual, if you have the 4.56, it's OK.

Auto, even if you have the 4.88, you probably need to regear. You will for sure need an additional tranny cooler.

Also, 33x10.50 will fit without lift, saving you money.
