Uniroyal Giant Tire was a Ferris Wheel built by Allen Iron and Steel Company previously located at the 1964-1965 New York World's Fair in Flushing, New York, USA.[1] The ride was shaped like an oversized automobile tire.[2]
The tire, without the Ferris Wheel's passenger vehicles, still stands in Allen Park, Michigan, USA outside a Uniroyal Tire sales office.[3] The Ferris Wheel mechanism was allegedly relocated to Atlantic City, New Jersey, USA, where it operated at an amusement park.[1]
