Jon,the only way to light up the tires with a 3.9 is
by the aid of an accelerant,such as kerosene or a good
lighter fluid. :) There are a myriad of good tires
that aren`t expensive,and that are reputable. But from
what you describe,and if I understand properly,your
intentions are to purposely wear your tires out by
spinning your wheels at a higher velocity than the
mass of the vehicle is able be propelled,thereby
negating friction by the sudden propogation of torque
throughout the vehicle`s driveline. I cannot recommend
such an action at this time,and here`s why: Not only
will this bit of seemingly harmless folly degrade the
environment by the dispersion of insoluble pollutants
into our atmostphere,wreaking havoc with our
weather,creating ozone-depleting gasses,and actually
making the sun much hotter,but you will definitely
injure innocent bystanders,if not immediately by
flying debris,then over the course of their lifetimes
by debilitating conditions,not the least of which
including black lung disease,and simple chronic
halitosis. And let me warn you of the litany of
traffic violations you will no doubt incur by your
reckless actions,thereby offsetting the savings that
may be realized with the purchase of perhaps a
lesser-known tire brand,and creating unnecessary
tensions between yourself,and local law enforcement
officials.

(So go ahead and get some Coopers,they`re pretty good
tires). Steve P.
