Sit down with her. Not on IM, phone, email, but just face to face. No interrupting, take turns talking. No yelling, shouting, etc. Just remain in the calmest voice.
Tell her that you think and other people think that the crowd she hangs around is dangerous and infamous.
She may get mad because my parents do the same thing to me saying the way I dress, act, is rude and such (I'm emo but ppl say I'm punk. Whatever. Screw labels)
It may be because she doesn't want to be by herself starting high school or is afraid of getting left out. She might be afraid that she might get picked on (she may feel security in hanging out with the "dangerous" crowd)
Ask her what she sees in that group and why she's hanging out with them.
She might defend the group and listen to her and don't interrupt her.
Ask her "What if I was to be in the group." Ask her what she'll do if someone gets [seriously] injured or get's in [major] trouble because of the group. What will she do?
If she won't listen at all, tell your concerns to your parents. Your sister may hate you for a while but it may do good in the future [better safe than sorry, right?]
I hope she finds a better group of friends and that it all works out =] good luck <3
