Default World's first 30" Production Wheels & Tyres

Well for all you homies out there who think that 28" is just too common for your "Escalades"' & "Hummers" here's the ultimate accessory!!!






Pirelli and TIS Wheels introduce the world's first full production 30" wheel and tire at the New York International Auto Show!





Guy Mannino, president of Pirelli Tire North America and Myles Kovacs, president of Twenty Inches Strong Wheels were on hand on April 14th for the much anticipated unveiling of the world's first and only production 30 inch wheel and tire combo.

Pirelli's new 315/30R30 Scorpion Zero Asimmetrico beats every other tire maker to the punch to supply this exclusive tire in full production for the light truck/SUV range with this particular tire being the most sought after tire fitment for the Hummer H2 and features an exclusive "Double Z" tread design for maximum traction in any condition

TIS wheels, the trendsetter in aftermarket custom wheels, accompanies Pirelli with the introduction of a finely crafted and distinctive 8-spoke, 3-piece wheel which is the first in the company's new "Thirty Inches Strong" line. As with all TIS brand wheels, these monstrous thirties feature Phat Lip™ technology, which allows for the deepest lip wheels on the road today. The first set of these monumental wheels and tires have been sold to MTV's Bam Margera from "Viva La Bam" - valued at just under $150,000!



$ 150,000 for a set of wheels and tires :shock: :shock: Well what can I say I am speechless!!

Not only is that pointless, they would also seriously handicap your vehicle's performance and really throw off the accuracy of your speedometer. Then again, it would take a mentally handicapped person to buy these. Whatever. :roll: :roll:

Those rims look too big, and the tires too thin for a large "muscular" car like the Hummer. It makes it look wimpy all of a sudden.

How dumb.
