When i had some 276s in the back i found some 22" tall 15" tires made by purely (spelling) that helped out a lot. It looked kinda stupid with a 26" tire up front, but it worked!
I had to go out and look at the speed rating on my front tires and then look up the rating( 118 mph)
here is why i haven't worried about the aka VW tires on my much heavier car.
The speed rating is for long distances at high speeds. The faster you go the more heat you generate and the better the tire has to be at removing that heat to live.
Yes i know centrifugal forces come into play here as well but its the heat the allows it to expand into the danger mode.
How long does a tire take to get up to max temp at 118 mph.
I don't know, but i bet it's a hole lot longer then a 1/4 of a mile.
How long are you going to maintain 118 mph with your street car/tires? if it is these skinny, i bet it's not more than a minute at max.
just my thoughts.
this is how it looked with 7" wheels
