Yes it grips fine but what they are talking about is the tire coming apart. At that point it doesn't grip anymore.

I don't like the fact that they kept showing highway tractor tires on the side of the road. It was like they were trying to say they were car tires when clearly they were not.

I do believe that they can come apart. And a tread can last longer then the tire itself can but if the tire goes then the tread doesn't mean shit.

I have tossed tires with that were still above the wear bar because of dry rot.
