Funny you say that, because when I first picked it up I did a quick run and shredded the tires in 1st and 2nd, halfway thru 3rd and for a quick second in 4th.... Of course these were on the F1s, but they are brand new ones....

I never heard of any insurace company denying coverage due to window tint?

If this happens, the company in question should see a ton of business go out the door.
