Default 350HP and drag radials on the street???????

so i was thinking about getting a set of drag radials to put on my car,but i was wondering if my axels will hold up on the street cuz i daily drive it alot i had set of azenies and they dont get good traction and i got the money to get drag radials and was wondering if a lot of you turbo guys are running them on the street,by the way i got stock axels!!!!

stock axles can take alot of pain, my buddy has been running stock axles in his 406whp turbo car that has a Kaaz LSD and Beefy Radials...

No problems yet.... although if you always launch i could see a problem coming.

Roll Racing saves axles ..

If you don't preload it at the track/street from a stop I could forsee lots of broken stockers in your future

im also worried about breaking my stock axles. after market axles are so damn expensive. its kind of hard to roll race when your at a drag strip lol. but the thing is i might not have lsd before season comes... will it be pointless to get drag radials?

Yeah, just make sure to preload before every launch and your stockers will last

preloading is a must to prevent breakage.

either way, go get yourself a set from your local autozone or NAPA autoparts. their axles come w/ lifetime warranty

410 whp here on 225/550/15 bfgs daily here... no problems ... just preload and don't completely beat the **** out of your car and they'll last. I know two 450-500 whp cars that daily them to with no problems.
