I have seen that for a couple years now, only one problem,, the tires are made to a certain weight,, if load say 500 pounds of horse feed in the trunk of your car what happens to the load rating?

Maybe i'm jumpin the gun here-but looks like these things need their own wheel?? Maybe i'm lookin at it wrong?? Not seeing how it would mount to a (standard) wheel. :uglystupid2: Hopefully i'm seeing or not seeing something/anything?? Ideas out there in radio land?? :crazy2:

My son got a chunk of snow in his wheel and it shook like crazy going down the road
. The open sidewalls on these would be a nightmare in snow or mud.
