Isn't this pretty much optimal on dry surfaces? The patterns in the tires are for draining away water, and nothing else. I mean, look at F1 tires for dry roads.

But the tiniest splash of water will send you on a rotational journy into what's straight ahead.

And those tires are wet in the picture, so it's amazing they're still alive.

On a dry surface these have more grip but the belts are exposed and any debris wouldn't bit be absorbed by the tread so I'm guessing not optimal for dry surface but very dangerous.
