What's the date code? I'm guessing it's more age related than wear related but what do I know.
I was putting on my crunchy set of 215's for their farewell tour tomorrow. I noticed thread-cord in the grooves of the tires. No sign of cord on the external part of the tires, but the grooves are full of them.
Caught me by surprise. Anyone ever seen that before? (I'll be running my daily driver Kook's BTW)

I'm pretty sure the next SCCA event will be it for my 215's, they are SLICKS! I haven't seen any chord, but then again they are back in Whitesboro right now.

Mystery solved...the lines I thought were cords, are actually factory paint markings from when the tires were new.
Man, these things are never going to die.
