Let us know about the long term too. I'd thought about it, but was
wondering if there might be a downside to tire wear under abuse. I'll
occasionally break tires loose on the pavement, but I also run them at low
pressure off-road. I was worried that sand and crud would get stuck in all
the little cuts and then not come out when the pressure was raised back up.
