you probably saw some nitto 888s or whatever they are called. Have a very similar tread pattern. I don't think motorcycle tires would work on a car. Load rating probably isn't high enough considering a car is WAAAAY heavier.

nah it wasnt because of the tread pattern that made me think it. it was because the tires where round like that, there for with the extreme negative camber it had the wheels touched the ground better. idk, when the weight is distributed over 4 wheels it could probly work i dont see why not. but oh wellz.

sure it wasnt just mega streched racing compounds a lot of them look like that and crazy japs like to stretch tires on wheel 3 inches too wide for em.
