No one is saying it isnt a neat idea or isnt something original but honestly, $2000+ a tire for red smoke? I dunno I guess if you have the money to waste but I mean im not impressed if someone were to drift or do burnouts and have red smoke coming from their tires. Id rather have a tire that hooks and gets my car moving rather than a tire thats made to do burnouts.

I agree for $2500 a tire(not $2K as stated before...I priced them out after I saw the GTO video) they aren't worth it. I figured if they were $300-400 per tire it would be something kool to have. I still like the idea...just not the price.

id say 200 each max cause your just gonna destroy them in like a minute. so your looking at a 6 to 8 hundred dollar burnout, thats better that 4 thousand dollars but still rediculsuly expensive.

They were actually made by Kumho for the Enjuku Racing drift team in Orlando, FL. I've seen them in action and it makes things more interesting. Its nice to see something besides white. Here are some pics of them in action....

Back from the dead...If they were cheap they might be worth it just for extra points at the burnout contests..other than that, I wouldn't buy any.
