RE cut staggers,When my son bought his car recently it came with some bits and bobs,amoung them were some "cut" stagger rib tyres.I tried them on my car and straight away loved them.So I bought some for myself and some slim rims to mount them on.When they arrived straight away we noticed they were different,the tread pattern was inconsistant and the small treads were very "wobbly".The result was that the drive was very different from the ones that came with the car,after enquiring we found out that the original tyres were the original uncut pattern that he had cut himself.The new cut tyres I bought have only done a few heats and quite a bit of the tread has broken off.I have a pair of the originals that i have cut myself to use tomorrow evening.The upshot of this is that the centre two rows of tread are far more substantial than the ones you can buy ready "cut" and hopefully wont break off(i`ll let you know after tomorrows meeting what happened).It didnt take long to modify two tyres with a Dremel type tool and thin cutting disc-10 15min approx.
