SS M6 rear gears

Anyone change their rear gears on a M6 2016 SS?
I personally like how long first gear is but think 2nd and 3rd are too long. I know you cannot shorten some gears so I'm wondering what guys who have done steaper gears think.

I'd really love to put 4.10's in the car. I know that 3.90's may be available but I'm not sure that it would be worth it over the 3.73's that are already in there.

when I called Richmond, they said it is the same gear / carrier as the 2015. The 2016 pars catalog is not online yet or one could cross check. Richmond also said they don't no of anybody upgrading to 4.10. I agree 4.10 would be perfect.

Does Chevy ever offer steeper gears in their catalog? I'd use my gm certificate on that!
The 1LE is going to have 4.10s, right?
