tire modification help

[^2AYYY LMAO]

i'm new to modifying vehicles and having trouble finding the correct values i've got the sunburst 1.8l engine putting out 7,000hp at 10,000 rpm pretty reliably but in 6th gear at 325mph my front wheels and axles explode they were exploding at 285mph but i lowered friction and increased the torque transfer to the rear but i've reached the max speed using those values, the axles do not break anymore just the front tires pop. is there any value i can edit to increase the strength of the tires? I'd imagine it would be a little easier to find since the engine and radiator problems were so easy to solve but i'm looking at the suspension files like i've never even read a book much less jbeam files xD

They explode because normal tires are not supposed to handle such speeds.

// EDITING ORIGINAL FILES IS NOT SUGGESTED. THINGS MAY BREAK AND ETC \\
You can edit tires by going in the vehicles/common/tires folder, finding the right .jbeam file and fiddling with the numbers.

I highly advise against changing original tires stuff, as they are being carefully fine tuned.
Any different value can make all the things using those tires behave very differently.

I'm ok with breaking things as everything can be fixed with a fresh install. (yes i've reinstalled the game 3 times getting the 1.8l to work with 7000hp lol)
I don't know why but i never checked the common folder yet so i didn't even know the tires were in there haha thanks. hopefully i'll be able to get to my goal of 400mph in the straight

thanks so much i just hit 378mph!!!!!

you could try and take all air out of tyres as this makes the tyres stronger

Or you could ride on rims.

Then there's no tyres to pop, eh?

still haven't reached 400mph without breaking something the front splitter likes to get pulled underneath the car at ~350+ slowing the car down drastically. as a side note if anyone else is trying this don't put the tire friction up to 4 i tried it and as soon as you steer even slightly it flips the car into one hell of a barrel roll

unfortunately it wasn't actually going that fast but the wheelspeed reading is pretty wild

'M6' stands for Mach 6? ;P

The speedo reads the wheels measurement. (Ie. wheels could spin and car stay in place, you would see the wheel speed, as in reality)

You may want to use the 'Airspeed' app to get the speed of your vehicle in relation to the world.

i lowered the grav to -7 and i got faster without tires killing themselfs
