you're going to go through tires regardless....

I had a 140hp (at most) sentra and it went through tires quicker than that...

how often do you go through a set now? mine don't last over a year and I'm REAL easy on them for the most part.

and those are tires I bought specifically for their wear rating...

the stickier and faster a tire is the quicker it's gunna wear out.

you can keep your suspension... a tration bar (if you had searched you'd know this by now) just mounts to where the stock tow hooks do then it ties into the lca in the front. (I believe)...

It just stops any hop from occuring in the suspension..

lsd.. you can go aftermarket or sell you swaps tranny and get a type R with the stock lsd... it's the Y80 I believe. I'd probobly recomend a queef since you're the big money spender. they're much better than the stock type r one but they're like 1000 bucks.

well worth it though.

traction will actually make you chew through tires faster than w/o... w/o traction mods your wheels will hop which isn't half as bad as them being spun smoothly.. the lsd will ensure EVEN wear.. so instead of doing 1 wheel burnouts you can do 2 wheel burnouts...

plus the added load of the tracion bars will increase wear on the tires during normal driving much less hard driving.
