[Shotimes] Run Screaming - Tire Thread

[Ron Porter]

Don't know what model you have, but Kumho now has a whole flock of new
VictoRacers out there, where they only had two a few years ago.

I don't believe any are really streetable, although they are DOT-legal.

I like the Victor Racers but I think they are obsolete?  Haven't looked in a
while and they certainly aren't street tires.  Don't some tires now come out
that are only 6/32" and don't need shaved?
