Since mine are already screwed to the rim, would I be better off to add more screws so I don't risk tearing the sidewalls up?
I have 8 screws per side now, 16 per wheel. Should I double up to ensure nothing moves?
8 sec 3900 lb car. 295-65 radials on an 8.5" wide rim.

Thanks Moparts


My friend goes 7.74@174 with no problems. He is not screwed or bead locked.
