Meh... haven't met anyone yet or heard of anyone wrecking and subsequently bursting into flames with a car tire on their bike. Present company included.
I just finished the 2020 F6B Rally with a Darkside on my bike. The Cherohala Skyway, Blue Ridge parkway, The Tail of the Dragon, and other twisty, curvy roads down there. Not an issue. Didn't even know it was back there, performed as good (or better) than a motorcycle tire. ESPECIALLY in the wet....

9 out of 10 have raved about the car tire.
I have never seen any issues nor crashes caused by a rear car tire. Just my 2 cents
Successful people build each other up. They motivate, inspire and push each other. Unsuccessful people just hate, blame and complain.
