In my 20s, I had a CJ-5 with a lift and 33x12.50 BFG A/Ts. I also had no ABS obviously. It had just started raining and I hadn’t learned the limitations of my setup. The car in front of me hit the brakes and so did I. Her vehicle stopped and my didn’t. Fortunately, I was only doing about 10mph when I hit her. No damage to the CJ but her bumper needed a paint job. It was a cheap way to learn these things don’t handle like other vehicles.
IMHO, it is more about driving within the limitations of the vehicle (or my limitations), than it is about making sure my vehicle is close to original specs for safety reasons. You can do both (don’t mod and drive safely) but life gets pretty boring that way. YMMV.
