As my tyres wear out, they definitely have less grip in wet conditions, but on dry roads their grip seems to get better with age. Is there a reason for that or am I kidding myself? EM
Technically, so-called "slick" tyres (with no tread at all!) can give better grip than treaded tyres…but only on clean and dry tarmac! They will give significantly less grip if the road surface is even slightly loose or soft or wet.
