Why do tires have small extrusions?

Question by Oliver: Why do tires have small extrusions?
Every tire I have seen has small, cylindrical extrusions all around the tire. They are located on the tread of the tire. Why are these here? Are they left over from the injection mold process or something?

Is the surface smooth? If it is, rough it up with 80-grit sand paper. Clean the surface really well, and then wash prime, or use a self-etching primer, then regular primer. Sand with 180 initially and then reprime if necessary. You’ll want to finish sand with 400 grit. If it has a “bumpy surface,” you’re not going to be able to rough up the surface. After you do the priming, just use a scotchbrite pad to sand. I painted my truck last year, including the inside plastic molding, which had the bumpy surface, and the plastic windshield wiper arms, which had the smooth surface. Paint is still on there and looks good.
If it’s too close to the engine, it will burn off.

Question by $i: A rough ball park figure for the cost of an injection moulder for small components? (Including everything.?
I just wanted to know out of interest how much plastic injection moulders cost designed to produce small components (the size of a brick.) Including the mould and all of the machinery. I’m just looking for a rough estimate (£100,000? £1000,000?) Thanks.
