    Old tires can be fun. I know that some people here like to roast them in their final hours, but I enjoy the low traction. On my old tires I would have some fun on wet roads. There is this highway near me that is divided and has 3 lanes going each direction and at 12 am it would be empty. After a recent rain I would take Suzie out and give her some gas while making a right turn and I could kick out the back end a fair bit. Anybody else have fun with old tires?
