I've heard good things about Insane axles from CA natives. I don't know too much about axle design and metallurgy but I talked to Mike from Insane a while back and he said his axles were chromoly but heat treated to where they are stronger than 300m. They also had larger bearings and cage. Like I said though, I've heard a lot of West coast guys having good luck with these. They are stock sized too if that makes a difference. I don't know if these are exactly what Insane was selling directly though. I think I still have his number if you want some info.
