Cold Tear?
I went to the track last weekend and I think I got some cold tearing. Is it safe to drive on the street? I have had the tires for less then 2 months.

Normal chunking at the edges from overheating. More negative camber will fit that. If the tear doesn't go to the cord of the tire, you'll be just fine continuing to use them like normal.
Cheers, and props to you for enjoying your car at the track! |

You'll be fine. You ideally want around 3 degrees in the front.

Your local tire shop should also be able to give you a free "paper" tire depth measuring ruler or doodad to help you out there. |
