No

No

Did you even read the article? Besides the fact that they look like an extension of that Audi's wheels, they rank high on the badass-o-meter...but not as high as Jules.

Yeah thats quite old. And BTW I hope you like your brakes in tiny sizes because you not gonna fit much inside that rim.

HA HA yea thats true, maybe they will make like bigger sized ones for e30s :D

if the tire depresses like on that CAT, won't that decrease ground clearence and defeat the purpose of having equipment that can get around on surfaces like that? Regardless, cool concept.

i think the purpose of that picture is to show that the tweel can support massive vehicles...translating to ease of use on pass vehicles.

[a32guy]

I saw a video of these... dunno where it is now though.

[e30evolution]

i dont think the tweel is targeted towards the performance entusiast.... so why would the size of the brakes matter?

They look kinky but so cool.

I want a Elise/Exige/Motorsport Elise with those if I was a balla.

you would want one if your a moron.
There is a reason why track drivers increase pressure in their tires.
