I was wanting to get some opinions and insight on what is considered the line for allowing a car with worn out tires to enter an autocross. Currently, my RE71's have about 8k on them and the rears a

This may be a perverted read of the rules, but the street tired classes require the use of a dot legal street tire available blah blah blah. If you are on the wear bars, the DOT defines the tire as u

Some stuff about a tire having to be in the Tire Guide or approved by the SEB, then..."The tire model must have Department of Transportation approval." This means it must have a DOT number molded in

Thanks for the input... seems like I recall reading those rules before a long time ago. But, something I'm more curious about than the legality of it is would it still be safe? I agree with having no

got 13.3.I - "each tire must have measureable tread depth" and 13.3.J goes into some detail of what that means. IMHO, "measureable" means there is some molded-in groove, sipe or measuring hole into w

It really depends on how you feel about it. As long as they aren't corded when you get teched they should pass. I've started events with tires and found by my last run that cord was showing. Never ra

Our local rules are, once any cord can be seen, the tire is out of action. Change the tires or stop running. You used the "R-word", so I am reminding you that we are talking about autocross here, no
