In SM, GCR section 9.1.7.C.5, remove the section as follows:
e. Tire tread (that portion of the tire that contacts the ground under static conditions) shall not
protrude beyond the fender opening when viewed from the top perpendicular to the ground. To
determine compliance, the vehicle should be rolled through a powdered substance, as raced
with driver, in order to indicate the tire tread contact patch under static conditions.
