Do you guys think these tires will be a good autox tire for the new s2000 that is suppose to come out?

Not if you use yellow.

Anyone have an idea about how this stuff holds up?

And no Apex, everything looks better with white letter tires...EVERYTHING!

I passed this knowledge on, not being the suspicious sort...I wonder how long it will take for this to fade away? Could take months.

You had me up until the rickroll link, which is old as hell and irrelevant ever since Rick Astley himself rickrolled all of the USA Thanksgiving 2008.

Oh man, late to the party on this one as I didn't see it until today. I was getting really worked up about this until I saw it was an April Fools. Glad it's not true or they would bork up the street tire classes as they did with the old stock classes. Phew.

I got fooled too. I wouldn't have if I had watched that video. I saw a guy at my local auto-x with a 5th gen Camaro with white letter tires. They looked great!

Its what a lot of the Cobra and GT-40 guys do to add "Goodyear" bill boards to their street tires.

We've had discussions about this before, those pens don't seem to hold up well. Plasti-dip is supposed to work well, crankwalk did that on his Z's tires some time last year, you could ask him how they're holding up.
