Seriously... I'm looking for new tires, and stumbled onto this lavender aroma tire. The comments at the bottom are worth reading. I'm thinking of Chili Red peppers aroma.

Please be careful with these tires, they require thurough regular cleaning of wheels and bodywork - like colored smoke tires.

Why?

Now, if they had lavender-scented brake pads, that might be worth considering...

A sented tire would be great for a spare you carried inside the vehicle.
