Yeah I feel like I'm getting to the point where it's time to think about it. I'm squatting and deadlifting over 1.5x my bodyweight for 5 reps now and already tweaked my back once on DLs. I'd probably only use it on lifts that are 275+

Yeah, you're doing quite a bit more weight overall than I am. But I certainly wouldn't risk hurting your back again though. If you hit a set and start to feel that core get a little weak, grab the belt and finish 'em off.
