Default Nitto's and stock rear

I need new tires and i was thinking about going with the Nitto 555r's. With basic mods (Lid, TB Bypass, bellows), do i have to worry about blowing out my stock rear?

I don't think you have to worry to much, I have been cutting 1.8 and 1.9 60fts with my nittos for awhile and no problems yet .

Stock rearend went out on a country road after a smokey burnout. I was on 275 KDW street tires. The rear is screaming and howling. Rather than repair the rear I'm going with a Strange 12 bolt and 4.11's in November when the bonus bucks hit. Until then there's a chance I may be riding the CTA buses in Chicago. Oh joy!!!!!!!!!!
