That's basically correct. One caveat is that manufactures often put gripper material on the outside, while the inside is meant only as a base and doesn't have much grip. You can't make DIY racing slicks just by sanding down normal tires. Maybe you could back when the World's Fastest Indian guy did it, but not now.
