previously saw someone sell recut f1a2 and ps3 in sgcarmart

the longkang part can see the diff

or some just cut the side groove if the overall depth still big

 

its like looking at longkang

Is this even legal? I've heard of regrooving for commercial vehicle tyres, which makes sense since those huge truck tyres are much thicker than car tyres and can probably last for another round of wearing out. But car tyres are not exactly that thick...

local what they do is they cut the thread again

like for example PS3 the centre blocks have sipes across them, by 1/2 life the sipes disappear, they use hot knife and just cut...looks very crude...

not sure is it Legal, but very sure Tire manufacturer is 100% against for Safety reason 

For commercial vehicle tires I think is approved by some tire Companies ,and provided that tire wall Marked (Re-groovable ).

to make sure you don't get those re-cut tires , just Ask the BOSS ( make sure is the BOSS ) Is this re-cut tire?

otherwise some Company especially Boss or Management always said Sorry MY Staff overlook this hahaha

Would it be bad if the front tires are Falken but rear tires are Nexen/Firestone?

I will say is OK to have 2 pairs of tires (2 SAME on the ONE axle).

strictly speaking mixing of 2 new and 2 old even same type of tire also can not

can see  some car running on 4 type of tires without any problem (because problem only occur when tires working very hard and bad weather, emergency situation )
