    For all those wandering if these are slick (racing) tires, it doesn’t look like it. You can clearly see the grooves worn out (bottom left) and the threads through the rubber on the left, indicating extremely worn out tires. I’m curious though as to how anyone would get their tires in this shape before a safety inspection would have made it mandatory to change them.

      Many states (and presumably many countries) done have safety inspections. In the Midwest there are tons of old vehicles that would never pass an inspection out on the road
