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

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.

Must of them will tell you there's no discernible difference in handling.
Of course, most of the "car tire is good" guys couldn't tell the difference between a super sport and an overweight ill handling pig to begin with... other than "the seat hurts, and the bars are too low." ![]()

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.
