Yeah...
But really I have been totally confounded with "H" speed rated motor tires barely making it past 10 - 15 K. And Running "V" speed rated (stickier softer for fast speeds in excess of 140 MPH) car tires on the Cruisers / Prowlers in my fleet to 20 K plus. Where I replaced them due to department standards that they should be replaced at 4/32" minimum in case of rain / wet conditions, or at *6/32" due to standards of snow grip requirements being no less than that. (* anything with less than 6/32" is no longer snow tire rated) And you know most of those drivers didn't go much below 70 MPH most of their shift. And either (both?) start life at 10/32" tread depth...

That video IS the best one I've seen on the subject. covering the differences in bead design provides food for thought.

Was thinking on that, back in the day when there were still many cars running tubes, we would switch over to tubeless tires and back then the bead to wheel edge(?) on the tire and the tubeless / tube wheels was also different. I think the "standard" bead seating area on the wheel is a "J" type "snap in"? https://www.sae.org/standards/content/j1205_199704/ And there is this happening... https://havefunbiking.com/bike-tip-tubeless-tires/

Yeah, I don’t think I’ll be mounting a car tire anytime soon. Although the prospect of parking without a kickstand is enticing.
I don’t think I’ll be mounting a motorcycle tire on my truck anytime either.
