This patch brings in the new tyre typres (reinforced, offroad, and racing slicks) as well as tweaks to damage while driving on rough terrain (generally, this has been reduced especially at low speeds).

The racing slicks are the weakest, especially on rocky terrain.
However, the racing slicks are less liable to take damage than others when skidding.

Reinforced: much tougher than regular tyres, but with slightly worse grip on all surfaces

Offroad: slightly tougher than regular tyres, much better grip on offroad surfaces, but moderately worse grip on road surfaces

Racing slicks: weaker than regular tyres, though less liable to skid damage. Much better grip on road surfaces, much worse grip on offroad surfaces.



I'll now go and make some of the stock cars use the new tyre types, and seed the trade daemon to produce them.

Yes thank you. I am interested in seeing how the different types work. Thanks Sam.

Is there a way to sell these to other players in the market?

There's a few wilderness cars with reinforced tires which is currently the best source for those.

I am running on all offroad , I know rammers and fatboys are using reinforced but I aint seen any slicks yet .
That will be a new market I strongly suspect.

Had a chanche to try the racing slicks and they handle noticeably better (although I didn't do a side-by-side comparision). They are rare though and I already wore my first set down pretty much.

We needses more racing tiresesssss...!
