Default Strange Pro Street Gears?

Has anyone used them? any word on if there decent? i cant find shit online. and i DO NOT want a drag set of gears i cant daily drive with. trying to find the best of both worlds type ring/pinion set. Any ideas? i try'd the "cheap" gear set white box summit brand/ebay 120 dollar set. May or may not have caused my failure But im building this center section RIGHT this time!

Make sure the case is GOOD. Factory cases are the weaknesses.

I've seen those gears used over on yellowbullet. Dont think I would use em in a street application. Best bet is to go over there and ask. The knowledge on there is ridiculous.

Well the problem is im Not being cheap. Drag gears CANT be street driven. Street gears can Take the abuse but also can fail on Hard launch due to a harder gear material. Pro Street gears Are SUPPOSED to be the best both for an affordable. Sportsman type price.

just wanted to make sure they arent just reg gears advertised as something else.

Pro street gears work fine on the street. We've used them before. I ussually prefer Motive gears though.
