On the tire it says they are regroovable. how is that done? Maybe they aren't for vehicles, but they are doing just fine. Stan
Use a grooving iron like in the link Jon posted. Like others have said, some truck and trailer tires can be regrooved. Back in my racing days we grooved our racing tires with the same type iron as shown in that link. I regrooved the tires on a truck I had back in the 80's and didn't have any problems. I wouldn't recommend anyone regroove tires that aren't designed to be regrooved.
Regrooving is just that. Cutting existing tread deeper with a grooving iron. Not the same as recapping/retreading.
