Never seen it till now. I did'nt know you could get a 235 car tire on a stock rim but here it is. I don't know how the handling is gonna be though. probaly would not be too good on corners. Theres quite a selection of car tires so I imagine you could find one thats a alittle more rounded on the edges. Here it is for sale on ebay.

I'd like to know how it handles also, couldn't be very good. It looks cool maybe I try it one day.

Video showing underside contact patch here, its actually a lot more than I thought it would be. I have been researching this quite a bit and it seems to be very dependant on tire pressure, and not good for twisty roads.cool lookin bike.

Accident waiting to happen. My 2 cents. But of course, good lookin' bike.

after seeing video I have to concur with darkstar, that is one stupid mod, no doubt.

Would be a suitable choice if you want to burn a tire up until it blows !!!

Didn't we have a guy at Warrior Fest riding a car tire? I think I remember that it actually went pretty well...

This looks to be great news for any northern riders looking to add a winter tire with studs!!!


Or this might end up being the next big trend in choppers... Tune in to the Discover Channel for more info.....

There are a lot of people that will swear that this is a preferable alternative to a bike tire. http://rswarrior.com/forums/p/118255/954051.aspx#954051


Cad_father is one of the guys that likes it. It is a **** of a lot more economical because its cheaper to start with and will last forever.

I would assume a car tire would get a **** of a lot more milage than a motorcycle tire. Thats the only benefit I see from it. Boss Hoggs have car tires on them. I would assume they come from the factory that way considering every one I've seen except for one has a car tire. But those bikes are massive and heavy. Definetely not made for cornering.


On the other hand if you have a warrior and ride in a straight line all the time it might not be such a bad idea. But personally I like to be able to turn without throwing everything I have into it.

I wonder how it would be at the drag strip

 

[preacherman]

The Cadfather has one on his bike ask him how it handles.
