Burnouts and Tire Life
Okay, this is the most newbalicious question probably ever asked but does anybody know exactly how bad a burnout is for your tires? Nobody can really give me a definate answer. If I were to hold a burnout for like 4 seconds and then peeled out and drove off how bad would that be for the tires? I actually googled this question for like an hour and nothing came up. Ive been wondering this for a while and finally got the ***** to ask this retarded question. I should be flaming myself for this.....
it all depends on the temp rating and traction grade of the tires, also if you have a LSD rear end of if you are rockin' the one-wheel peel.- either way its not good, but i have heard that the faster your tires are spinning, the less rubber it burns.
It all depends. I actually carry a tread depth gauge with me for when my retarded friends feel like wasting rubber. I get it before and after. They were only small burnouts, so no info yet. Started doin it like 2 weeks ago.
Either way, it doesnt help the tire's life.
