  • Yeah, I don’t think anyone was saying bald or sanded down tires would be good. If the tires were supposed to be groved but no longer are, those tires are WAY beyond their expected life and need to be changed. The rubber compounds are different than actual slicks and bald tires will never provide adequate traction even with the increased contact patch. Slick tires are completely different.


  • Have you heard of summer tires, snow tires or all seasons?

    The tires on my car can only be used in temps above 45° and honestly at 45-50° it’s extremely sketchy until they get warmed up. They’re also terrible in the rain and really only meant for warm weather and dry days.

    You also wouldn’t want to run full snow tires in the summer.

    So passenger cars absolutely have tires meant for different conditions
