Seen this going around on Facebook:
"Gun lovers public service announcement: While I was in a Denver gun store today, my car was tagged on the wheel in the parking lot. The gangs do this on wheels or bumpers at gun stores, shooting ranges, gun shows etc. Later when you are parked at a restaurant, hotel, or other location that's less well guarded or under video surveillance, other gang members spot the marker and break into the car for a quick gun grab. This is so RAMPANT in San Antonio where we were for a National shoot this summer, the police chief of that county came out to brief the 400 participants of our competition. "
OEM tires on all new cars have these dots usually pink or yellow as a general marking point when installing them onto rims. It will generally line up near the valve stem (as seen in the picture). I call total BS on this absurd rumor of these being gang marking (but yet only appear on new(er) cars with OEM tires)
