Colleague of mine has seen it done using round section motorbike tyres. But I have no idea how that car is even driveable with square section car tyres.  :o


Cannot see it being road legal in the UK. (thankfully)

Looking at the pics in the second link it does appear to be motorcycle tyres. Probably the massive 300-section rear tyres that they put on the bikes in American Chopper.
