  I've never done this myself (tires are too darn expensive for this
type of stuff!) :-) but I've heard that bleach will eat into
your tires and reduce their life. So if you do this, be sure to
wash your tires off really well afterwards.

  For those of you who enjoy doing this sort of thing to intimidate
people, how about a small tank of clorox, a couple of windshield
wiper nozzles in your wheelwells, and a winshield washer fluid pump
from a junkyard? Whenever you really want to smoke 'em, just spin
the tires and hit the switch. I don't know of anyone who has done
this (which is probably a good thing) ;-) but I do know of people who
have done exactly this but they use it to spray traction compound
onto the tires. Now there's an idea I can get behind... :-)
