Default stronger drive shafts for welded diff

hello all new on here so hope this is in right place! had a few e36s and a e30 now got a 318ti as a second car to beat about in, few of my mates have 318ti and 318is and have welded the diff on them and they seem to go ok in the wet only problem is they seem to snap drive shafts a fair bit. is the any other shafts that will bolt in that are stronger e30 325 shafts or e36 shafts?
cheers

I have one of these for a Getrag 318is fitment. It has 300 miles on it and they are supposed to be the best non-custom shaft you can get.

If you send me your total length of the shaft number, measure from case to mid bearing number and bolt pattern for mid case I will let you know if mine will fit your car. I want half price for it. Also ignore this if you meant to say half shafts keep breaking. Welded cases will break half shafts quick. Why not buy a LSD case?
