Those push on wheels look a clever idea. Do you have to carry a puller to get them off if you have a puncture.

Hydraulic switch on the front brake lines, kind of like a front wheel hand brake :y

That said, if you have enough power and no grip, you can spin the rear wheels before the fronts have reacted...
Same result 8)

As long as the car has the required braking systems, and they work, then not an MoT concern :-\
