Tire is Continental Extremecontact Sport, dated from 2020.
I've been into 2 HPDE events so far, and this year I was planning to be the last one for these tires due to age, just to be safe (6 years seem to be the consensus, even though there's plenty of thread life left).
But after getting the car back from detailing, I noticed these marks on all 4 tires. Maybe those marks were always there and I just never noticed, I only did this time because of the shine product they used, it became more obvious.
Anyway, does anyone know what those mean?
