    Removing Paint on Tires???

    I just got a set of Firehawk rims. The guy I got them from used them for autocross. The tires have white paint spots on them where they mark them for tread wear I think. I was wondering what I could use to remove the paint.I don't want to use anything to mess up the sidewalls on the tires since they are practically new. Thanks

    Dunno what to tell you. Paint remover would be way too harsh on the tires, so I'd use a black permanent marker to cover up the white paint. Can't think of anything that removes paint from rubber.

          Thanks for for the ideas, if removing the paint doesn't work I'll use the marker idea.
