Here\u2019s a little trick you can use to see if someone actually drives their car. And by that I mean, drives it around corners like they stole it. Look for heat-cycled tires.<\/h3>\n

Firstly, take a look at the photo. This photo clearly shows heat-cycled tires. You can see the feathering happening on the tires\u2019 edge. It looks a bit bubbly and rough. This type of feathering is not the same type that occurs when you have alignment problems. What you see here are heat-cycled tires that come from taking lots of corners at lots of speed.<\/p>\n

\"Fiesta<\/a><\/p>\n

These particular tires are the ones on #RallyFist<\/a>. Unsurprisingly, since the Ford Fiesta ST is a corner eating machine. Furthermore, it helps that these are really sticky Falken RT615K<\/a>.<\/p>\n

You will see heat-cycled tires like this on autocross cars and track cars. The tire wear on track and autocross cars will be a lot worse. On cars of this sort, it\u2019s not just rough feathering \u2014 You will see what looks like melted rubber and pretty bad bubbling. This depends on how hot the tires got when on track.<\/p>\n

While heat-cycled tires are a normal thing in spiritedly-driven cars, really severe tire heat-cycling can lead to permanently affecting the tire. In extreme cases, badly heat-cycled tires will never grip the same again.<\/p>\n

Next time you are at your local Cars and Coffee, take a look around. Go and look at the tires of the vehicles in attendance. You will see a lot of garage queen tires that have never gotten hot. Then you will see the tires of some of those folks that actually drive their cars.<\/p>\n

Finally, with a little bit of patience, you will be pleased to see the special breed of heat-cycled tires. When you find them, you will know. These will be the tires on the avid track and autocross drivers\u2019 cars. You can\u2019t miss them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
