All buying sticky low wear tire accomplishes is having to buy another set real soon and more $ for the tire guys. It's a money making scam as far as I'm concerned.

If your looking for dual use tires, that's a different story.
If the sticky tire's superior collision avoidance benefits allow you to prevent 1 collision they have more than paid for themselves!
