Default Question on power lvl vs tire

When it comes to auto cars, how do you know when you are simply over powering the tire?

Im really wanting to stick with a nitto on the 15's im going to buy. They are simply a better tire than the Et streets except in traction. But with the right suspension, auto , good weight transfer in a light car when does the et street become necessary?

The soon to be setup will be bolt ons 4.10's 3800 stall 150 pill about 3200 pound car.

Any input or other questions is fine.

Not worried about dd with them. the issue is wear. I dd the car and drive a decent amount and im not looking to buy tires every few months.
