If you know of Master Milo, you’ll know this Dutch bloke is possibly the craziest car scientist in the world.

In a series he calls ‘useless experiments’, Master Milo does things that no-one else would have the balls to do, like drive a car without shock absorbers, or shifting into reverse at 100km/h.

His latest experiment involves replacing rubber tyres with metal pipes welded into squares on an Opel Corsa B (Holden Barina).

That looks incredibly comfortable. (image credit: Master Milo)

Why? Most likely for the LOLs.

As you can imagine they weren’t very affective, Milo couldn’t even get out of first gear without losing momentum.

Wheels are round for a reason, just watch Mythbusters attempt at square tyres.

What experiment should Master Milo do next? Let us know in the comments.

Following a passion shared by his father and grandfather, Mitchell’s love of cars really kicked off with his Godfather’s purchase of a new Mazda RX-8. Exposure to that car changed his world forever, leading to an RX-7 obsession. To feed his automotive addiction, Mitchell decided to become a motoring journalist and made his mark at several high-profile motoring publications before landing at CarsGuide. While he is a rotary loyalist, Mitchell also has a massive love for Aussie muscle cars, and dreams of one day getting behind the wheel of a Charger R/T E49 (if anyone will let him). His other passions include Queensland, and spending Saturdays with the boys.
