Didn't know where to put this so move if needed, but if I put Nitto 555s on my car which has 101K will the rear end hold up?? Thanks

nittos arent super sticky, plus you have an auto, so it should be fine, but ive busted 2 rear ends on street tires and i have an auto as well, so who knows

Can you afford a new gear end? Not saying it will blow, am just saying that if it does.

opps, REAR end, lol.

Its always a hit or miss with that issue. Personally, I wouldn't worry too much since you are using Nittos and you have an automatic tranny. If you had an M6, Mickey Thompson DRs, and the urge to do high rpm clutch drops, then I would start to worry a little more.

NO, I cant. Is the risk worth the reward?

2000GTP

Probably not then.

<<<wants to do m/t et streets on my stock 10-bolt 95k miles A4.....will only be launching from 1500rpms tho....for now.... safe or not?

davidz28guy

depends on your luck, like i said i have a 95 its an auto, has 96k miles on it, on street tires i destroyed my stock posi, then on a rebuilt 10 bolt i snapped a chunk off my pinion gear, now with mickey thompsons im sure i wouldnt have lasted as long as i did, but you might be alright, plenty of autos run drs with out destroying the stock rear end, i just have really bad luck

gotta ask yourself that with every mod. sticky tires, n20, too much boost, etc.

If you have an auto you should be fine.
I'm a 6-spd with over 500rwhp on nitto's on a 10 bolt. But at my power level I just spin the **** out of them, some BFG's are next for me.
