Squirm
From WikiPedalia
When a knobby tire is used on a hard surface, the knobs can bend sideways under load. This effect can cause poor cornering traction, especially on tires with tall knobs at the sides of the tread. Squirm can cause a sudden and abrupt loss of cornering traction, with little warning.
