Knight Rider somewhat-smooth hubcaps!

Someone shared what was supposed to be a funny clip from the show and I was only interested in the wheel covers.

The cool kids call them "Bowling ball hubcaps" because bowling balls are frisbee-shaped and have 5 holes!

Do you think they improved aerodynamics measurably?

In all honesty, I also noticed Michael's smartwatch, and wondered how many people with smartwatches also had modified black 1982 Trans Ams.

Very interesting. There was a Honda aftermarket wheel that was similar. I'd failed to find it when I tried.

I thought I invented frisbee-bowling while I was reading this, but it already existed.
