Put some walls on it and it'll look like a normal decent tyre.

on the surface a fine tyre for everyday use.

But in competition and serious off-roading, HOW do you adjust the pressures to optimise the grip ?

I reckon the Bibendum ( Micheln man ) should have been a skeleton if ANY of them had had a sense of humour
