New Tire Smell
When you guys got new tires did it smell after a drive?
I just got Fuzion HRi last week and they smell funky after a drive. My friends
ask me what the smell is all the time. I hope it goes away after some use
on the tires.

Rep Power: 360 New tire smell is the best from soft compound tires. The harder ones usually don't put out as much of an odor. Almost none.

The smell doesn't bother me that much. It's gone in like 5-10 min.
Passengers question it all the time.
Crayons taste like purple...
