treads for the cheap person

i took a soldering iron and ran it across the tires (didnt go really deep) i wated till it got really hot then i would make 1 line by running the iron across the wheel twice then i did that till i came back to where i started

Does this give you more traction or something?

i'm guessing it'll look a bit like aquatreds. if he took some more time and made some angled lines towards the outside, it would be great for running through wet grounds

hey Security Civic,

if i send you tires, would you autograph them? I think that would be cool and also increase the traction....

Yeah, they'd give you good traction in wet conditions for about 5 minutes before the water spraying up into your chassis shorted out all the electronics...
