*insert dont tread on me joke here*




what about shipping "non compliant" tires in and having them mounted?

dont give them any ideas

So tires that do the least damage to roads would be gone and we can all drive around on 1000 treadwear bricks that do the most damage to roads….. Not to mention the safety aspects. Sounds like a truly California idea. Cut off your nose to spite your face as usual. We truly have the dumbest politicians in the nation here.

I swear half the reason I won’t vote for a certain political party is simply because they want to ban basically every damn thing that I like.

I suppose if the folks of California are happy ... cool... if finally discussed you would think to change .

Another reason for California's residents to move out. Vote by moving out guys so they lose the tax base and congressional seats.

So let's make tires with Low rolling resistance the norm which wear faster and cost more? Sounds right for government overreach program. What about tire disposal cost to the environment?

Reminds me of how my MPG went down after they added ethanol to the gasoline. So I end up using more fuel for very little savings. BTW, corn based ethanol also compete with land that could be used for our food supply.

Meanwhile 6,000 lbs SUVs with gas guzzler tax exemptions are the norm.

So now we get CA tires and 49 state tires? Just like the 90s all over again?

The tire companies can use green rubber to promote virtue signalling.

Sounds like they want everyone on tires that don't grip the road. This way everyone is losing control of their cars, and killing themselves.

Good time to open a performance tire shop on the Nevada border
