On a related note to this topic, have you guys heard that Kumho is coming out with scented tires? They actually make a "pleasant" scent when pushed hard, instead of smelling like burnt rubber. Kumho is directing them at women buyers, but I can't imagine people will buy tires just for the scent they make.

Check out the press release:

If it does I'll order some for sure.

No actually it would be a good idea if it masked the rich fuel smell a midpipe produces.

Only if the tire come color coded. Like , you can get pink tires that smell like strawberries, or blue ones that smell like blueberries, or... meh.
