So, he just did it for the video, or is this his permanent tire because he was too cheap to buy a real one?

I dont know, I have seen some bikes with car tires on the back, but they are usually folks who do major miles and really need the life of their tire to last.
Here is another one http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T0zts...eature=related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EAHlb...eature=related

People were using them on choppers when the wide rear tire thing started, but I think that was because tire manufacturers didn't make motorcycle tires wider than a 230 or 250.

First off... its a car tire not a bike tire. Proper part for the proper job. No fuckin way I'd put that shit on my bike. Just look at the contact in lean.
Secondly... the tip of my yamaha guy is a fuckin tool. Obviously for tippin over his bike. Obviously for putting a car tire on it. Less obvious... for talking about "the infamous clutch rattle". Guess what fuckface. That isnt it. You're a fuckin tool. |

I totally think the tip over guy is an idjiot. I just cant imagine the amount of force that it would take to push the bike into a turn off a flat tire like that, and I was surprised at how much that other guy was able to lean on the tire.

I can see how it would last a long time, but it will probably hydroplane more often, as any small car driver with wider than stock tires can attest.
