Man, I am totally pro-Corvette but I have a picture in a book somewhere of tires on a porsche with the Porsche insignia molded all over the tread. I'm not lying, I have searched all over the house for that book so I could scan the picture and I also looked all over the net. Oh well, youd've never beleived me anyway. Still looking though....

I read about those wheels, they were put on the concept but were decidedly too cost prohibitive for production, the problem was with stocking such a specialty wheel for a long period of time. Oh and the thing about the porshe emblem in the tire thing...... Last year at the Auto Show, the buick Cielo or something had wheels with the buick emblem in the tread, it lookd really cool.

I think they have some tires like that on display at the Corvette museum. I can't remember the story about the tire.
