That sponsorship is as a result of the growing popularity of the sport...Its always been popular in Japan, but with it taking off in the US through a proper D1 event, its only a matter of time till the same thing happens here.

When i was getting sideways on race tracks (now know as drifting) tyres were never expensive, i'd just use a set of worn out rally tyres on the rear, they'd last about 40klms in a rally, then i would well & truly screw them on a race track.
