I know there is a safety factor but do you know the factor is, you're just guessing.
I truly hope this doesn't start a trend of everyone running them because when someone's car gets totaled or worse, someone get's hurt, it won't be a good day.
So if they are rated at 500lbs each and during a hard launch you can have roughly 75% weight transfer or more. A full weight street evo at 3400lbs with driver will already have about 1500lbs on the rear tires, so that's 750lbs per tire roughly. On a launch that will probably go up to 1200-1300lbs per tire, that's almost 3 times the rated load!
I've talked to MT about this already. It's really not safe to run these on cars. I know this sport is inherently dangerous but why blatantly put yourself at risk like this?

What tire do yo suggest then Martin?
