Thats pretty bad. Worst thing is, you cannot see the inside extreme wear unless the wheels is cut all the way, so it goes un-noticed for a while. Mine looked very similar if not worse on my Si, the front ones had steel coming out on the insides on both sides. I was driving in the rain and could not stay in my lane, was really scary. From now on, i check my tires out more often.

Damn sumir, what the hell were you doing with such worn out tires on your S2K. That's just dangerous!!! Glad you got them replaced. Did you get new S-02s???
