Might be good for the consumer if you don't want odd ball sizes in the dealer's inventory. If the dealer knows inventory will devalue just sitting there he is not going to stock slow movers. With every new car or pickup having a new tire size, they already need a huge inventory to have a needed tire. A law like this will get rid of the slow movers.
