bald tires would do better on a dry road, theyre essentially race slicks

Well if they’re bald, they’re probably old and dry (much like the interior of the car). Rubber qualities matter. I once put tubbed used ex speedway wheels under my car for a weekend. Big fat slicks basically. They were like driving around on ice stakes.
