Not 100% sure, but I remember hearing that colored tires aren't as good on the turns...something about them being more of a hard tire because of the coloring. Anyone else hear this?

Being a poser goes way beyond popping a 1/2 mile wheelie...there are many dimensions to being a poser

all of what you hear is true. they are crap. their sales pitch is that they are made of aircraft quality rubbber, which is verry true. but what they dont tell you is that aircraft tires are an extreemely hard compound designed to be able to withstand dozens of landings from over 250-300 mph. so if you plan on cornering with them THINK AGAIN. but iff all you want to do is go strait and do cool collered burn outs all the time then go right ahead.

I love how aluminum, steel, rubber, latex, cereal are compared to the "aircraft quality" versions. It's such a marketing ploy.
