There is a guy selling a mess of tires and stated durometer hardness as a method of how fresh the tires were. or the degree of how gone they are. Might have to get me one of these just because I am a gadget nut when it comes to my race car. |

I use one. Its useful to track age and degradation of race tires. Not as important for overall tire selection but it helps use tires longer. Laptimes are pretty much the way to judge the useful life of tires.
