This might be a dumb question but does the tire smell? I ask b/c i had 2 tires from a Nascar race, one Gordon and one Dale JR. and they left a rubber smell in the basement i had to put them on my porch b/c the smell was starting to get bad.

The rubber smell subsided after some time. The tires are made of different compounds and I have had some NASCAR Tires a while back and that rubber compound smells way stronger than this tire ever did. I did wash down the tire because we keep it inside and didn't want any black marks on our carpet (just a little soapy water).

That's strange because i have a tire of rusty wallace car and it never smelled at all.
