Ah, gotcha. What you're seeing is not cords. That's just the part of the tire that doesn't make contact with the ground during street driving. The contact patch is clean because I moved the car around in my driveway while it was raining before putting it on jack stands.

I'm gonna try to source another tire, and if I can't by end of tomorrow, I may just cancel. Maybe I could temporarily mount my extra Michelin tire, along with the extra Nitto, if I cord, hmm.
