to answer your question...i would say yes and no....will just control arms let you launch harder? well if you have POS tires then what for? also, there is a lot to be broken in the rear if not done right. just control arms..dunno man, but it will always be better than just stock

The adjustability of the control arms will not do anything what will break the rear end. They will simply allow you to set your pinion angle and set preload if you wish. What WILL break your rear end it HARD launches which the control arms will help you achieve.
Regardless though if you are running even the STOCK rear suspension and a set of slicks your rearend is on borrowed time.
