Default ? about the T/A cover

ok so much do they really help protect your gears or rear end? are they even worth the money? and is their any M6 running low 11 and 10s with just that on their rear
Thanks

I think it's marginal at best. When that 10-bolt is ready to go it's going to go. On the other hand, the cover can only help, and that's a good thing.

With the numbers in your sig you should start saving for a new rear end.
