I think they sold several million of them back in the day. One sidemounted tire turns it on and off and the other one changes stations. The Audi A8 has an optional B&O sound system in it.

You were able to change radio stations with the side mounted tire.<br /><br />The only Bang and Olfsen equipment I owned were these small little monitor speakers that I used for surround sound.
