Default Colored tires?

I was watching some burnouts on youtube and I saw some guy that had pink smoke. So I found out Kumho makes colored tires. Anyone use these for burnouts? I thought they were interesting. I've never heard of colored tires before.

Ouch. I'd believe it though. But I thought they were pretty unique for a burnout 'show.' Dunno if they would be worth all that money though, since they will only last a couple minutes.

Guess I heard wrong. It happens..... But $285 is still steep for a dog and pony show

that is just like the scent additives for gas so it will smell like bubble gum, vanilla, etc.... my boss priced it out and it is about $25 for a bottle that will do 10 gallons

I've heard of tires that make colored smoke. I always thought it would be a horrible waste of money...
