Quote: Here is my friends car. He has a big tire on the car but is still peels back from the bead at high speed. Bead locks are required for cars 200 mph or faster. Screws will hold just fine. http://youtu.be/Mq74hLBlZxA
there are plenty of damaged, wrecked small tire cars and current information that would prove that 15-yr old 200-mph theory dead wrong. the OP is dead accurate with what he posted.

Its not a myth, is an NHRA rule. So what did all the fast cars do before beadlocks? We raced Comp Eliminator in the 80s and there were no bead locks. We all ran rim screws.
