haven't done it before but if you made those little notches the tire would flex in both directions. those cuts should help the tire wrap around the rock better. but im not sure if it is totally necessary. guess you will have to see what other people say about it too.

I added one sipe to each of the lugs on my Swamp Dawgs. I also undercut the leading edge of each lug and there was a definate increase in traction on the rocks. I don't know if adding two sipes to each lug is overkill or not though. Do it over a garbage can in a well ventilated place! The amount of smoke I got was unbeleivable, and it hung around for well over an hour! David |

Are you just cutting on the chalk lines with Dremel and cutoff wheel, or are you planning on removing the whole section between the chalk?

You might want to stagger them a little.
