That's cute though, if I had a kid I'd give him your citicar as a toy.
It's just funny to think that childrens bicycles come with 20" tires, and an automobile was made with 12" ID tires.
By the way, I recall when I worked at Sears years ago they had some 12" snow tires, that won't help right now but if anybody needs some WinterHandler Ice & Snow - P145/80SR12 Sears does carry them afaik.

I will pass that on, my Comutacar takes 13" tires (which are actually harder to find than 12"'s in the 125 designation) my Subaru takes 10". But others have 12" rims on their C-car
The thing is smaller tires save resources and could reduce wind resistance if sized appropriately for the application. Lets face it 20" rims on a sub 5000lb vehicle is rather rediculous and normally it makes the ride suck.
Heck my folks 20000lb 40' motorcoach has 20" rims!
