I definitely felt the spool in my car.... I had the 99 NBM SS M6 with the 12bolt with 3.73s with the spool. With the MTs out back it wasnt terrible, just had to adjust your driving habits alil.

With the 315 Nittos on the other hand.... Not the most fun to drive in a parking lot.

Yeah I have a spool in mine and it is not bad at all. It is alot easier to steer the car with skinnies on it though. I would do it if it is just a weekend/track car. True-tracs are only reliable until about 600rwhp so if you plan on putting a heavy shot on that car I would do a spool.
