    Guys and Gals, the article is 16 pages long. IMO you have two choices:
    1. Wait until SRT-Tom summarizes the article for us
    2. Do what I did, just go to page 14 "Conclusions" and read the 4 points they listed. ;)

    Thanks for posting SRT-Tom. I strongly agree that under 4/32 presents wet weather traction problems. I usually change out at 5/32 tread depth.

    I especially like the Michelin device of having tunnels in the rubber that only turn into grooves as the tire wears down to that level. That's even better than the ever-widening grooves.
