I need new tires, and I don't know what to get. I wish they made the ZL1 tires for the SS wheels

Hahahahaha. I never said DUMP the clutch ... Yes you break an axle .... I also said every car is different . .. Mine has DRs twin clutch and DSS 9 inch rear. I use the slipping technique

Axles break when you hook not when you spin or atleast to my understanding.

That would make sense.
As for the tires, I'm looking at the Nitto NT05s. Any experiences with those?

Not at all. Just take your time, and if your changing seals too, lube her up inside and out! the spring compressor is really just time consuming, and make sure you got a magnet for the keepers, always helps you not lose them.
