    Are welded diffs bad for daily driving?

Transcript

A welded diff and why might it be a bad idea? People who drift weld their diff because it's the cheapest way to get tier rear wheels spinning together consistently and this makes for consistent initiations. All the spider gears rank the diff bad a plate for extra strength and you're good to no. But here's the downside: on tight turns your inner wheel and outer wheel need to spin at different tier. Welded diff forces the tires to spin the same amount which causes one of the tires to skip and causes more tire wear. While the diffs are great for drifting, not so great for daily driving.
