Are the SSR GT3's suitable for track use?

I have SSR GT3 wheels with Bridgestone S-03 225/40ZR18 and 285/30ZR18. I bought the wheels and tires from TireRack. Great service. You can see them both on and off my C2 here: <a href="http://homepage.mac.com/pje/PhotoAlbum4.html" target="_blank">Paul's C2 Cab</a>

I'm worried more about strength and flex. I have 1/8" clearance between my wheel spokes and my calipers now.
