I want to come by with a razor blade and remove all the tire nibs so bad....looks great though and may have to do this to our two dailys.

Is it weird to keep them on? Asking for a friend

Super weird. They're just leftover from the tire molds. Leaving them on to me is the equivalent to leaving the energy usage decals on your tv's and appliances.

You guys and all your tire pubes can do your own thing. I prefer mine shaved and clean.

Here’s the front and rear view. Watching the video doesn’t articulate how close I came to losing control and hitting the SUV. Felt badly if I frighten the driver. That’s my buddy in he
is new vet behind me

No judgment here, but this is exactly why I save "Track" for the track. I don't have near the hp you GT500 owners have, but there's no reason to roll around with the TC off on the street. It only massively increases your likelihood of doing exactly what you just did in that video and very likely much worse. Cold tires plus tire shine = black ice as far as traction is concerned.

Just because every car reviewer (top gear were the worst at this) jumps in the car and immediately turns off all of the traction control to set a lap time, doesn't mean that needs to be the way you commute to and from your local car show.
