Imagine tipping a cone over onto a table top. Now roll that cone. Now explain to me how a cone shaped tire can do anything but wear more quickly than a cylindrical tire.

Frankly, this "invention" reeks of a bandaid to poor suspension geometry. Also, it reeks of "prior art" since people have been shaving tires asymmetrically since the 60's in SCCA.

Somewhere there's a massive NASIOC thread about this from a month or so back.
