Thanks. tin-man
Guys do burnouts because they can. However, the desire for and frequency of burnouts typically decrease once the expensive set of tires is "cashed"--and it's time to purchase a new set of tires.

Why is it that guys spend upwards of $100k on a Cobra and then skimp on tires for the vehicle?
