As an experimental TP I can hardly believe that tyre creep on an F-16's wheel rims could be assessed as acceptable.
Obvious follow on restrictions would need to be applied to max braking approaching skidding when one could expect the forces to cause tyre creep to be at a maximum.
An efficient anti skid system could hardly be trusted so close to the max braking envelope.
Also a touch of the brakes after lift off could be a hazard.

Did you know Jim Rider?
