Default damage of Breakstands

How substancial are breakstands to the rear end? I have 2:73's now and will get 3:73's does this mean the rear end will be fresh when I get the 3:73's? Also How many average break stands does it take to fry the rear breaks? Looking for a ballpark. I enjoy lighting them up!

i can't imagine it harms the car too bad. when you get the gears, buy the installation kit too so you'll have fresh bearings and everything. then you shouldn't have anything to worry about.
