You'll be fine as long as you go to a good shop.

Motive gears are made by the same material as the FRPP ones... and there is a very popular rumor that Motive supplies FRPP with its gears...

Had Motive 4.10's & 4.30's, no issues at all.

All depends on the installer.

I have Motive 4:10's absolutely no problems with them so far (9k miles on them and a good number of track runs).
I have heard some people complain about gear whine with them, I would just atribbute that to not having them installed correctly...

I have also heard they are made by FRPP, so you can't go wrong. Install(er) is they key.
