Screws and beadlock? At what power level is this usually needed? I have never been to this point but would like to know when it becomes something to think about. This is assuming 4000rpm + launches too of course.
Thanks

Just mark your tires. When the rim starts slipping, time for screws. When you win the lotto, time for bead locks. I do have a set of AlumaStars that are bead locked that are 15x10 on a 5 backspacing for sale if anyone really wants a set.

Beadlocks are way over kill, not worth the weight. Plus they are frigging expensive as said. You don't want to know how much my 16 X 16 Bogarts cost. We only use them at 190+ and are required at 200+. We screw all slicks, it's not worth risking a boo boo.
