There isnt really any 10-bolt rear I would call strong.
That said, if you're running normal street tires and messing around like a normal driver, i wouldnt worry about it.
If you're going to take it down the dragstrip on a regular basis, or if you're planning on putting drag radials or slicks on it... then Id start to worry about it.

otherwise... its fine. you'll burn up your street tires in a cloud of smoke before it breaks.
