I'm only on my second prop dude, first one only went because it had 130k on it!
Current prop has done 20k on knackered splines and hasn't failed me once.

my standard steels have tyres like that. 70 profile i think. when i got my wellers, i found the lower profile (50) reduced a lot of flex in the feel of the car, better steering response too. makes it sit lower as well, so youll get a 1.5 to 2inch drop overall, with tyres n blocks.
