Default Will 305's on 18's with nittos break my 10 bolt.

I have about 550 torque and have been running my stock 10 bolt with 3.90s and gsd3's on 17's for a while. I want the zo7 deep dish 18's but deeply concerned about the 10 bolt. What do ya think. I'm not doing true slick only nittos or kd's

Its really only a matter of time. Like it was said before I am surprised it lasted that long. Radials are only gonna increase the chances.

Nitto's are very stiff tire, when it hooks pulling second it will likely break.

If you are making 550tq I would be looking into buying a new rear LONNNGGG before worrying about new wheels.
