Will my axles snap with Drag Radials?
Depends on how you launch, the lower the 60 ft times, most likely the harder you launch. You might want to look into the GMPP axles for the SS/SC that are modified LNF axles to fit the LSJ
I have drag radials on my ss w stage 2 nitto 555 245 50 16, they just barely fit with the stock suspension only approx half inch or so no rubbing noted at all i have been ok with stock axles and i launch hard but if i feel any wheelhop at all i immed let off, my clutch is ok w street tires but starting to slip w the DR's from 1st to 2nd, I have the TTR engine mount and prothane tranny mounts which eliminated wheelhop 95% when i first put the DR's on i didnt have the mounts holy did i get wheelhop even on the street not even full throttle if i was a betting man i would say if i upgrade the clutch ie the weak spot i may break the axles, but wheelhop i agree is the definite breaker of axles. Ive seen a civic with 120 hp break an axle due to wheelhop
