People don't realise how important properly inflated tyres with good tread depth are for their safety.
Thought I was the only one who did that, supermarket car parks often show the worst of tyres. And what I've noted, many higher performance cars have the lowest tread depths. Seems the higher the cost of tyres, the more folks go to the limits. Certainly see it up here, now that is scary.
