Kumho Ecsta MX-C colored smoke tires and… herbal scented tires

6 November 2005 Filed under: Aftermarket View: 92

Kumho's engineers must have inhaled tire smoke one too many times. We admit that tires spewing forth colored smoke from a burnout are kind of neat, but only if a set of the $1995 tires (that's $2K each!) is being melted on some other guy's car. But tires scented with the aromatic effusion of Lavender and Rosemary? C'mon. Eric has reported back that they smell like herbs that have been growing in a tire planter. Makes sense.
