Tire tech gurus please chime in
I have heard from various sources that tires with full circumference bands in the tread design tend to cause more tramlining than tires with no such bands. Is there any truth to this?
Bands/Ridges - Continental CSC3
No bands - GY GSD3
P.S. I know all about sticky compounds, bad roads, crowns, toe, camber, etc. This thread is only about tread patterns as they relate to tramlining. Thanks!
Borrowed photos from tirerack site, hope they don't mind.

Weather is standard for this time of year, it weeds the less hardy people out they all move to Arizona or Florida
