Will they rip apart during hard acceleration? (0-60 in less than 6 sec.) what kind of lateral loads can these tires handle?

Will they rip apart during hard acceleration? (0-60 in less than 6 sec.)

There is no way that wheel is going to hold together at high speed and i sure as hell would not put these death traps on my car. Dude LOL. listen.
