That's just cause none of your cars could spin the tires long enough to smoke red. Don't be jealous cause I've been talking to hot babes online all day.

Sliced bread isn't what it used to be. Sliced bagels are the "in" thing now.

Oh yeah, only a ricer would buy two tires that smoked red. Only an ignorant ricer would buy four and put two on the non drive wheels.

I kid, I kid.

Re: Holy Expensive red smoking tires batman!

It kind fo creeps me out to see red smoke. I don't know why it just always has. I mean it's kind of a cool thing because you don't see it every day, but I don't think I would ever want them, regardless of price.

Re: Holy Expensive red smoking tires batman!

Wtf are you crazy. Why spend money on shit like that. When 3grand could make a nice size turbo sit in your engine bay. Oh and the other 9grand you could have a engine that smokes tires to the point of burning them off the rim. I think thats the dumpest gayest thing ever. Thats right up there with exhuast air fresheners....
