Not so much.

There's diminishing returns, additional weight, careful suspension geometry, brake temperatures, etc at play. The consumption of these components is ridiculous too.

For production cars, tires need to advance another 50 years before they're sticky enough in various conditions to carry an M1 Abrams through a corner at high G.
