    Why... what point do these server? Scented Tires?

    I know I always complain my tires on my car stink...... maybe its to hide the exhaust smell if you are stuck in traffic?



    Kumho introduces the world's first scented tire. Infused with heat-resistant oils, Ecsta DX Aroma is a luxury performance tire that comes in a refreshing lavender fragrance - offering uncompromising individuality for the discriminating driver.

    I saw an add outside my office for this and had to check it out... they are serious....????

          Eh, put some Old Spice on your tires, that'll take care of the nasty smell....

            Well they had different colored smoke first for the drifters so this is next logical step.

              Doesn't lavender put you to sleep?

              Interesting concept for those long drives.

                  I heard that Old Spice on your tires not only gives you more horsepower, but makes your car grow man hair...

                    LMAO! That reminds me of a little story... We used to own a dairy so we basically had all the free milk in the world and found many uses for it. One of those uses was in basketballs, soccer balls, etc that leaked. Just put a little milk inside and it would find the holes and curdle inside.

                    Anyways my dad got the bright idea to use it in this one loader tire that kept leaking and it worked for awhile, but finally it had to be taken in to get a tube put inside of it because it started leaking again. You should have seen those guys faces when they pulled the valve core and smelled that nasty rotten smell inside. Even better, when they broke the bead I swear they started gagging. They were like "WTF IS THAT!" and my dad was desperately trying to contain his laughter.

                    Ahhhh... good times, good times.
