i know if your shocks go bad it will make your tires howl after it screws the tread up

What tires? Maybe the rears weren't as worn out as the fronts so its "howling" now...

get your tires wet and dump the clutch a few times... that oughta wear em down a little bit.

but seriously, youll be ok... if its loud, just turn the radio up for a few days.
