Tires are the fuse in the drive-train. At least that's what I've found to be true. You hook, you break : (
Stock SS Axle or CV joint exploded on 1-2 Shift with mere street tires. This was at 650whp on the street. I think you are safer because of automagic. Once I got the renegade axles I learned the diff doesn't hold up too well and was just trading one weak point for another. So depends on how much further you want to go. Also the axles can be hard to get and can wait 7-8 weeks for so take that into account if decide to keep rolling the dice.
