Remote-controlled tire boggles the mind

by Mike Yamamoto |
Here's a perfect Father's Day gift if your dad's a fan of unicycles and other single-wheeled vehicles: A remote-controlled tire.

That's right, just the tire--no vehicle whatsoever. The creation of TOSY, a Vietnam-based toy and robot maker, the R-Tyre is billed as the "the first radio-controlled tire in the world", according to Dvice. And as dubious as we are of "world's first" claims, we're inclined to believe this one.

Endless questions come to mind about this gadget--not the least of which is "Why?"--but there's one in particular that has an almost existential ring to it: If you're shopping around for one of these, should you kick it?
