Granted, that would have been more scientific... But the vid claims that the "worn" sets were both at half the tread of the newer sets.
It says nothing much about the tyres - were they even the same make and model ?

Testing on 2 different cars also means testing on 2 different sets of shock absorbers, which also have a large influence on handling.

They introduce more variables than the one they want to illustrate.
