Researchers from the institute discovered that of the 2,456 chemicals they identified in tire rubber, 144 leached into the environment.
Some were heavy metals such as cadmium, lead, and zinc, along with organic pollutants like the chemical 6-PPD, used in tires to prevent cracking and extend their lifespan.

The chemical 6-PPD doesn't seem to be working very well.

It might only be the tip of the iceberg figuratively, but simply ignoring this concern is irresponsible IMO.
I wonder if it is included in race tires, as their intended useful life is relatively short.

The sad theory being, "it only becomes a concern if it effects one's manhood personally"?

Is this for the current formula, which SUCKS, or the previous formula?
