    How wide are they? They just don't look remotely safe.

    Aye but on the downside you look silly with a puntured tyre for as long as the tyre is punctured, you will look silly with this as long as you have those abominations for tyres on it

    People will cut the spokes, stick to normal tyres. Change is never a good thing.
