Exclamation It is TREAD not THREAD!!!!!!!!!

This has been bothering me for some time now. I've seen it here many times, other forums and Craigslist. Why the heck do people call the tire's tread thread ?

It is TREAD people. If you have thread as in threads showing your tires are not good anymore.

OK, I'm done, sorry guys.

Nah, some of you just can't spell. A lot actually. I guess I was just curious for all of you that spell it "thread" if you actually think that is what it is?

The funny thing is that I've seen people here use the word "tread" here instead of "thread".

p.s. - You should contact the person on CL and express your concerns.

A lot of people here misspelled . I'm surprised "thread" is the only one that bothers you.

Since we're on this, how about these?

-For Sell = For Sale
-Look at my Tints. = It's tint-not tints!!!
-My wastegates got replaced = The wastegates didn't get replaced. It's the actuators that got replaced.

I can go on and on...

When I lived in Oklahoma, folks down there would come up with good ideals.

What an idea!
