Obviously not road legal, and may not be permitted by event organisers. The main problem will be, they will have a max load of about 250ks @ 7psi Which is enough to hold up a Sierra....
At 10 inches wide, you would need to use 15 x 8 (preferrably) rims.

If its got 4 wheels its permitted apparently haha, the rims are 8" wide, will there be any issue with getting them to seal on a car rim compared to a atv rim ?

If you're extra careful fitting them, lots of lube, they should be fine. The beads are quite thin, so lots of care, and NEVER NEVER over inflate to seal the beads.
Do you know what their tread depth is? I'd be suprised if it was any deeper than a normal muddy.
