This commercial is good, even better than that Lincoln LS "Perceptions" commercial from a few years back.

guess you didn't think to search for Honda or commercial or both.

Been reposted about a dozen times.

Although I have seen this commercial many times, I still haven't figured out how those tires roll uphill.

someone mentioned to me its the way the tires are balanced that allow them to move like that. So apparnetly it is possible

they're just balanced perfectly with weights on the inside of the tire so that the slightest touch will make them roll, and gravity pulling on the weight on the front side of the tire (which makes it roll upwards) overpowers the gravity pulling the whole tires downwards down the ramp, so it goes up.

They had a program on CNN a few weeks back that delved into "The Making Of" this commercial.

They had weights inside.
