Colored Tires

Think about it 225 35 18's in Red, Blue or Green....Hot huh....My Brother-In law pitched the idea some time ago and just got patented for this (just in case someone tries too) Just wondering about this for my fellow CLR's...

Think about it....All of the music industry cats that spend money on rides...Think about let's say a rapper, buys a Red Benz with matching Red tires...think of the possibilities...that all...

I would never buy it, I think its a stupid idea, but I think it is a stupid idea that will make some money though cause theres alotttttta ricers out there that I know would buy completely colored tires in a heartbeat probably. Along side the rappers and stuff who love that tacky stuff. Congrats on the patent. I hope to see it on a neon/focus/corolla "S" at a light one day.

i think that is digusting but then again it depends on what they go on and how you are using them, cause stock colored tires would look gay but the low pros might look ok but i would have to see some first

I live in Arizona we don't have dirt. Just sand, and sand doesnt stick to tires.

Clear would look whatever color your wheel well is (usually black). Clear and Invisible are different things lol.

Nope, the way a wheel is designed, being as how its rubber, light would reflect around inside and get lost and they would always have a dull appearance to them. You could never have a rim that was (or stayed anyway) completely invisible.

Think of a Ronald McDonald car...

Instead of big red clown shoes, you have red tires.

Yeah, i agree its for ricers. I'm just enjoying the jokes that are going around lol. Tire shine compared to actually colored rubber wouldn't even be a contest to ricers. I'm sure if they made colored tires we would see them everywhere we look.
