thinking about siping my 33" MT/R's. who out there has done it & give me your personal pro's/con's about siping. I've read that siping is just better overall for the tire life. Keeps them cooler, prevents chunking because they bend/flex more, and obviously, wet weather handling.

Let's hear AND see what you've done.

Thanks!

I can't help you with the siping.....I decided to hand groove mine instead. :)

I borrowed a Rillfit groover. It works like a champ!

I have a friend who did it. He told me that he thought it made his tires wear out quicker.
