Default Wanna go nitto but really worried about my rearend.

I got a stock 3.42 rear on t-56 w/ textralia and drill mod.
Torquer v3, bolt ons, full suspension (except relocation brackets), spray.

I destroyed my gs-d3s very fast disappointingly, im guessing my hard shifts killed em because i didn't really abuse them.

I want to go with some nittos because of the added traction but I am really worried about my rearend. Any advice?

nittos dont hook super crazy, so you should be fine, also 10bolts are cheap if you do damage it. just dont do too many dumps.

I had mine break on a 4k clutch dump on nittos when I launched it NA with the cam, the year before the cam I would spray at 4-5k and it didn't break all season...Its really hit or miss but you can buy a used rear for around 250$

exactly what ive heard. if we were talking about M/T's, hoosier's, etc. then youd have a problem, but nittos are a good mix of street tire and drag tire
