Default automatics and drag radials????

I been hearing that the stock axles can snap with drag radials, how about with an automatic and 4.10's? I have stock TC so I will revving to only about 1500rpm. I don't know if the people having problems with axles and drags are mostly 5 speed or just everybody in general? I'm thinking about Nittos but don't want to break my axles.

Usually, Nitto's arent enough to break anything.

When you are talking about a more track oriented tire, you might start getting worried. Especially in an auto, you will be fine with nitto's

You should be alright, usualy you only break things when you leave real hard, I wouldnt worry about it.

Nitto 555R's are stickyenough to make PRO5.0SC's car hook and run an 11.8. I've got the 555r drag radials, 3.90s, big stall and a whole bunch of other mods and I haven't had any issues.
