Spotted in a convenience store parking lot - newish looking Honda Odyssey. I can say with confidence that these are the baldest tires I have seen on the road in quite some time.

That’s beyond bald. I hope there are no kids whose lives depend on those not going out at speed, but there probably are.

That’s so unsafe. I hope they’re selling that deathtrap of a car.

Looks like the inside threads are not as worn. Most likely a camber issue? Needs to be hellaflushed :P

Looks like excessive toe-in or positive camber to me. Notice the inner part of the tire has much more tread.

They should really consider something with AWD, so the tires don’t wear out anymore.

Those may be Touring wheels to... $1500 tires on a minivan.

Wheel sizes and tire prices have gotten totally out of control.

Ehh the problem is the the Touring Odysseys had special run flat rims that only Honda had the machines and tires to get them on. They were stupid. Google Honda Touring run flat wheels and look how weird they are

That’s the Michelin PAX system, which takes a proprietary Michelin metric tire. That van has Continental ContiProContacts on it, so if it had the PAX system it has been swapped out with conventional wheels.

It’s THAT thing. Yeah it sucks. That’s why all the used Touring vans have 22s on them.
