A tire cover may help. Amazon has them for about 20 dollars.

Smell of brand new rubber... Mmmm, wonder if they make an air freshener in this sent.. :)

it will go away, in time. I agree a cover would probably help too.

If someone finds that air freshener I need to buy a case.

Direct sunshine for a little while? Maybe help it gas off a bit quicker?

thx for the comments, the useful ones that is.tried a bestop tire cvr for a while , but that stinks too because its made for a tire outside the trk. most common idea everywhere is leave it out in the sun for a while.
