It really makes me wonder if we're abusing this tire with our fat cars :P After all, Hoosier is a very light tire which comes with lightweight steel belt-line.
Perhaps I am blowing it out of proportion. I will just send an e-mail to Hoosier and ask. If this tire works for our cars (R7 315), and if it lasts twice as long as R6s (which I hope), it might be an incredible deal for us and I'd love to try a set. It is about $450 cheaper than Trofeo Rs for a set as well.
