Default 4.10's or 4.30's? Reliability?

Can you tell a difference with 4.30's over 4.10's?
With my mods, what would be a better gear? I have a 228/232 .575/.585 -112lsa cam, QTP 1-3/4 longtubes with dual electric cutouts, LS6 intake and ported TB?
Will I still have traction on the street in first gear w/Nitto 315 DR's? What rpm should I be shifting at? I was thinking 6600 since I still have stock rod bolts. Is 6800 safe?
Even in a 12-bolt, 9"or 8.8", will I have to worry about stripping the gears with 4.30's? I heard they are a lot weaker than 4.10's. Thanks

NO as far as traction goes IMHO w/o heating them up Nittos are over rated for the streets I can spin thru 3rd gear if I want.
