as far as driving around without them.....you can...but not the greatest idea....youll most likely throw a SES and maybe run in i think they call it Open Loop mode. But yes you can either go get rear O2 sims to take care of it...or better yet just have them tuned out of your ECM. It is much better IMO to tune them out...cause at the same time you can ave it tuned better for the headers and exhaust you just added

Not quite.....the rear o2's do nothing more than tell your computer if your cats are functioning properly or not. You can drive as long/hard as you want if you don't mind that SES light staring you in the face. Your front o2's control your fueling.
