    Don't tell these guys about Hokey-Spokes. They're for bicycles but I'm sure they could be easily modded for cars. You can program all sorts of weird-ass designs and even text. My Coupe Z wheels are all going to say, "PAH!!!" as I roll down the street missing the rear-bumper.

    I could see this in an application that you need to light the tires as you inspect or change a flat...but I agree ...FAIL.

    Along with that HORRIBLE advertising, scrolling, voting panel truck that was driving up Street Rd some nights ago. Motion, video and light on a panel van, moving??? If I were a cop, I issue 4 moving violations and my nightstick hidden in the lowest sphincter... #gadgets

    Using those lights will ensure that a badly dressed Olympian will magically show up to pose for pics beside your murdered-out 90's Tiburon. #gadgets

    Hey! I saw the Atlanta skyline in the beginning of the video.

    But really, just another tacky and tasteless car mod.

    Sorry MotionLites, I'll keep my cash in my pocket and you can keep your flash off of my ride. #gadgets

    Say what you want. I think these are pretty cool. They'll provide an outlet for my frustration with all of the fart-can Civics.

    I can't wait to break them off of the first car I see. #gadgets

    But can I get some which spin while stopped in a 22" size for my 1982 Oldsmobile Delta 88?

    Why is it cool technology, like LED's, get molested by common people.

    I point to the Internet as a second example. HID headlights is a third. #gadgets

    You have dedicated lighting for that velvet painting of Elvis, why not have dedicated lighting for something else tasteless that you consider "art"?

    That said, I'll give $10 to the first guy to use these to illuminate some 15" steelies with baby moons. If only to (literally) shine a light on how wheels should look. #gadgets

    Servo actuated lighting? Serve it up!

    Maybe if they came out to light my headlamps, or to accentuate the chrome accent strips, or the fake scoops, it's be awesome. #gadgets
