WANTED fender mirrors for the 240Z

I have seen (and done) it myself, but why? Most tires (and other petrolium products) actually burn (when on fire) with billowing blue/black smoke? Since the rubber is left on the road, maybe the binders are released and they are white in vapor state The rubber smell is part of that process.

I emailed Goodyear customer service with the question-if they take it seriously, we should have an answer this week.

This (above) is the real riddle.

If tires on fire create blue/black smoke, why does a "burnout" create white smoke?

It will be interesting to hear what Goodyer has to say (if anything) about this subject. Hope they send you a reply.
