Tell me you're kidding and they didn't actually make those, lol.

These Michelin tires look pretty interesting, I'm curious if they trade off any grip for that mileage though.

No, I'm not kidding whatsoever...

There are billboards advertising them driving through Detroit. Orange and Jasmine scents to come next... LMAO!

Thats crazy.

From the second article:

According to Rick Brennan, Brand Director for KUMHO, the company is selling the DX aroma tire to help build brand awareness and highlight KUMHO’s tire technology expertise in the highly competitive automotive marketplace. The tire is targeted at female consumers who drive such sedans as the Honda Accord, Toyota Camry, Subaru Outback, Chrysler Sebring and Ford Taurus.


What will they think of next?

Any self respecting man wouldn't let his woman put scented tires on their/her car...

Any woman without a man is most likely going to go to Wal Mart and pay a zillion dollar for crappy tires...

Scented Tires = Stupid.
