Well, under hard braking you will get a lot of weight distribution putting force on those two tires. If your car weighs 3400lbs with driver at a 57% front weight distribution (LT1) then you have 1938lbs on those tires just sitting there- with no transfer.

Yeah, I figured as much. Stock weight is 3400 lbs without driver...
