That's the only thing I can think of and I, frankly, wouldn't be worried about that unless your build is insane (where you'd probably break shit anyway).

And by using a radial, you also won't go wall when your car starts walking towards either side of the track at speed (which, invariably, will happen when you mix tires).
I have a 6spd and mt them selfs say use a bias ply for a manual transmission. I also lowered my car which makes launching even harder so the bias ply should hook better when dumping the clutch
