Massive thank you to Caterham for providing their EPIC 270R. Check them out here: www.caterhamcars.com/en
We put EIGHT tyres on this Caterham in an effort to make the world a safer place. More wheels means more tyres which, obviously, means more safe.
We tried F1 tyres, but they weren't very practical and they were probably a little bit illegal. So, to prevent everyone from getting thrown in prison for using F1 slicks on the road, we headed back to the drawing board.
We then immediately realised that the theory was much simpler than putting it into practice - but after hours of research [types in ‘put 8 wheels on car’] - we figured it out.
All we had to do was: buy four extra wheels, weld them together - or rather have Richard do it, buy. 8 tyres and then fit them to a car.

Most vehicles that use double wheels/tires only use them on the back axle. That would probably remove most of the steering issue, and much of the wobble. Still impracticle probably, and prone to damage, but worth a try if this was a serious idea rather than a funny video.

For normal street cars, not large commercial vehicles or "Dually" trucks, multiple tries has been looked at, experimented with, and occasionally made custom for one-off show cars. The idea was to have tires that gave a LOT more channeling for water on the road, differing treads could be stacked for varying road conditions, and it was harder to be stranded or otherwise stopped with a flat. It is still doable but the cost of it may be more prohibitive than going with top performance tires. Still it is a good idea.

One step further is tracks or half tracks. Like on the case row tracks and quadtracks. More surface area, and less rips up the ground a little when turning. At least on the bigger ones. Honestly I haven’t seen any difference driving them between tracks and wheels, but driving on triples hurts my soul

Do variable ratio tire. Cute the 17" tire and 20" tire in half combine these tire. The 20" outside bead 17" inside tire. Do this to all four tires. You could retain the soft ride with the 17" and use the 20" for aggressive turning. Good luck

I don't think that would work like you think it will since all 8 tire should always be in contact with the ground. It will only flex as much as the 20 in tires and really with both the 17 and 20 it would probably be stiffer since each tire is handling less weight.

"Double up on tyres, double up on grip" 😆 This probably wouldn't have been such a disaster if you'd only done the rear (and if you'd done a propper twin rim setup where the tyres don't rub each other)... but putting twin tyres on the front... there's a reason this is just not done. From the camber and toe causing ungodly tire wear to the steering kinematic just being completely fudged. Fun to watch tho. Suggestion for another video: Tuners always go with harder and lower shocks to look track ready. What if you were to take this to the extreme, fitting solid shocks to that caterham? (It'll obviously be a disaster, but would be entertaining and show just how important a good suspension is, could be right up your alley)

Tyre pressure is very important here. Suspension geometry means the wheels will often not be perpendicular to the road, especially on corners. Tyres need to be at half the pressure (10-20psi) and then adjusted (inside/outside/front/rear) to provide maximum traction.

I saw something like this about three decades ago. Guy in an Audi (maybe) was upset that he couldn’t keep up with a 2CV in sloppy weather. He mounted 8 2CV tires to his Audi with stunning results. The total load per tire was about the same. Paired skinny little tires versus wide stock tires. That experiment had much better execution. They allowed space between the paired tires so they didn’t rub under load. They allowed for axle load in comparing contact patch. The paired 2CV tires shed water better than the standard (high performance) tire though they did weigh more at each axle. The paired tires couldn’t beat stock tires under normal conditions, but outperformed in wet “real world”. Thanks for the video.

This reminded me of back in the 1980's when the great Aussie racing driver Peter Brock (R.I.P) did something very similar to a Holden Commodore. It handled better, had better grip, and the tyres run cooler. The suspension had been modded to handle the package. He even had it made legal in Australia. He tried marketing it, but it didn't take off. To extreme and expensive for the times. Another great entertaining video guys. Looking forward to what strange idea you come up with next.

There's so many benefits to the dual dually design. First it's trucker tested and approved but there's more. Run flat of course,no need to stop in a dangerous spot and get dirty. High speed blowouts should be stabilized. Double sidewalls should resist cornering loads better. Good rain groove should resist hydroplaning. That same groove creates a cup for flotation in sand and in snow could form it's own rail. Aluminum rims would be lighter and power steering is a must. I've been thinking about a concave center motorcycle tire. It would be less pizza cutter, have two high pressure contact patches per tire and wide spread with low rolling resistance. I'm hoping it might drift instead of wash out.

During the 1980’s, a company called JJD Performance tyres sola dual tyre setup that could be made for any car. It was a single alloy wheel set up to take twin narrow tyres (as any truck driver will tell you, you need a gap between the tyres to allow for sidewall flex, otherwise the tyres will overheat and catch fire). The idea worked reasonably well by all reports, but was poorly promoted, and eventually disappeared.

okay, for people not understanding, I had this explained to me a while ago. Double the contact patch, half the weight pushing down on each tyre, meaning half the traction per tyre. Meaning it doesn't give more traction. Doubling the load spread like that also keeps the tyres cooler, because they aren't being worked as hard. This would be not great, but it means you can run softer tyres, and they won't over heat. This is why race tyres aren't just soft, but also really wide :)

@Leonardo Dias yes, but real world it's so minimal that you probably wouldn't notice, and any benefit would probably be outweighed by the weight. Though you are right, soz

Not to mentioned on this creation, your differential is not adjusted for two tire on the back even if its listed slip,remember out wills always move fast than inner wheel when making a turn so having two wheels together, would have to be configured different in the differential(e.g. the differentials gears).

How about conical wheels to work against the loss of contact patch when the suspension is pushed further in?

isn't 2 normal wheels/tires the same as one wide tire?

Dually trucks and tractors(semitrucks) Have a gap between the tires to prevent rubbing. Your brake test was contending with increased rotating mass. Aluminum instead of steel would help a lot. Additionally you can safely run lower tire pressure since the load is spread out across more tires. You should try it again, but try a bit harder.

Such a cheap solution. I want it. And I'd do it with a (relatively) heavier car and tyres made for a light vehicle, run them at low pressure. The extra sidewall should HELP for side load. Heck, I'm having bespoke carbon rims done and fitting semi slicks. The channel between the tires can channel any water on the road surface into the ambient air.

I love how Scott, while he has a healthy sense of humor about it, he also is visibly in emotional distress lmao. It's top gear all over again. A good time was had by all, me included.
