A look to die for.

If it's not raining/snowing etc. then it's actually safer and better.

A drive to the store would have the wires showing. These tires weren't designed for this

[–] papabobolious@feddit.nu 12 points 10 months ago

The tyres are worn down to a point they were never intended to run at, I don't know but the rubber compound could be completely different that far down, not to mention the risk of punctures.

[–] jcs@lemmy.world 8 points 10 months ago

Well, safer and better in the driver's mind until they fly too close to the sun and realize following the accident that there was a puncture or that the rubber delaminated off the belt during the commute. This happened fairly regularly at the track I worked at, though that was more from folks running their slicks too long.

Come on now, this meme has been getting reposted so much its starting to degrade.

[–] qisope@lemmy.world 33 points 10 months ago

hmmm, maybe someone has been sanding it down so it reposts smoother on the Internet

[–] coffeebiscuit@lemmy.world 13 points 10 months ago

This meme is so old it should be retired.

Keep it this way, so Darwin can do his job

[–] Todesschnitzel@lemm.ee 9 points 10 months ago (1 children)

As with speed, as with smooth driving: start with the suspension.

[–] cosmicrookie@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

F1 is everything but smooth

Also less microplastics by abrasion on the road.

[–] kryostar@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago

Each time this meme get reposted his tyre gets sanded down just a bit more.

If you live in a place it never rains... yeah still not a great idea.
