They use machines like that in truck tire shops. I've had my big truck tires
trued that way but it leaves the tread with a kind of texture almost like a
drag slick thats been ran. Might do that if you have lot of rubber to take
off, then grind to smooth. When I crewed with Al, he used to have his Indy
tires ground. but that was when it was a lakester. When he turned it into a
liner he had to have real tires.

there is another motor driving the cutter which is a sharp rotating disc on
its own motor it feeds much like a fishing reel--back and forth across the
tire.
