I was watching YouTube videos of bajas in action and came across some from Spanish speaking countries. I'm sure they are not street legal in the U.S. but I wanted to see if any of you guys had more information on them as I thought they looked pretty cool.

Here is a link to a video, where the tires are on the rear of each car.

I was thinking they look like moto tires as well. I've now started looking at more of these videos just to see them and there seems to be plenty of people using them.

Here is a pretty cool build using a similar moto looking knobby tire.
