I merely want to rev, not burnout/spin the tires. Best way of going about this?

If yours is a auto and I'm assuming you mean rev it while driving then just put it in neutral and do it, but I would let the rpm's come back down before shifting back to drive!

I think thats just due to the tire compound, I also have those same wheels & tires and my don't smoke much at all unless you hold the brake. You could buy some DR's or just pour bleach in front of your tires, but be warned - theywon't last long!!!!!

Yeah you have me lost....are you just wanting to rev the engine while not moving. If that is the case then leave the thing in park, no need to shift to neutral. If you are cruising then go ahead and slip it in park and see what happens...
