Yes, they will heat cycle and take longer to heat up to a level of good grip. Expect about 10k out of the rears. That's it. This is with a 325/30/19 R888r with an 11.5in width rim.
I’ll prolly hold off to switch the diff out ..at least until I see what I can do with new tires ....as far as the r888r ..wouldn’t they be same type of tire as the nt05r..and mt street as ...and not great in the rain or for a daily driven car?

Wow ...so I should just blindly listen to the great word of spooler and if not ..then the great spooler says your on your own ...just wow

Would upgrading the diff improve the situation ..yes it would ..is it causing the issue that I’m having ..maybe not. As other people have stated they have had no issues with theirs for straight line traction and have ran 10 sec passes numerous times on the stock vlsd. So why would I spend 2k on something that may not even need to be replaced .....oh ....cause the great all knowing spooler says to ...

Go play daddy to someone else
