thnx, no cords yet. that would be scary. just wear bars. any further advice would be loved.

the tires are so cheap, im thinkin of getting new ones, but i just don't want to throw away remaining good tread. they still felt super sticky when i was in the canyon yesterday.

I replaced mine when I could almost not see anymore tread on the inside. They say the RT's get more sticky as they wear, I ran an auto-x when they were that worn and did well. You will notice the car won't be fun on wet pavement.

It is actually illegal to drive your vehicle past the wear bars so if a cop sees this, be prepared for a nice ticket.
