Rear axles Popping out

Currently in the market for a 335i/135i ..Have you guys ever experienced axles popping out?

A friend of mine has a e46 330 zhp and is popping/breaking them very often. He does launch the car and swings the back end out on turns from time to time. The car is just Bolt-ons but no F/I .. And hes running hankook v12s. I do understand that the e46 and e90 are two total different cars. However, I am worried that I will be having the same problems as him.I plan on going FBO+meth.

If anyone has experience with this please chime in. Is there a one time fix for this?

Two different animals. He needs to replace the tension clips on the cv axles first. Secondly, his axles are probably popping out due to either suspension angle or something worn out..... Like RTABS or something

Forgot to mention he is slammed in the front. No wheel gap. In the rear he has about an inch of wheel gap with some camber about -3 degrees

Did the E46 upgrade rear sub frame bushings too?
