A wheel that spins when the car is not moving !!!

If anybody has a link to the thing I am talking about please post it.
My friend told me today that he watched a show on TV where they showed a new type of wheel. You can spin it with one finger while the car is stopped. It actually is a regular wheel that has something on the ball bearing and looks like an alloy wheel on top of it. My friend also told me that the wheel keeps turning when you stop and look really nice when you start from stop because they don't start turning right after you move on. This gives an effect like if the car is moving without the wheels turning. If anybody has a link to the thing I am talking about please post it.

spinners: i stopped by a local high-end shop recently to price some tires. they were washing a cadi-SUV out front with some new spinners. i was talking with the shop owner and asked about the bill for the cadi.

pro football player, new 22" spinners and tires, lowered springs, etc.

a very reasonable $8500
