rests at Uniroyal headquarters in Allen Park, Michigan.

The 80-foot Uniroyal Tire was first a Ferris wheel at the New York 1964-1965 World's Fair before its creators brought it back home to Michigan.

While it would fit on a 200-foot-tall car just fine, today the 12-ton radial serves as an advertisement at Uniroyal headquarters just off I-94.

Olivia, Minnesota, holds the title for World's Largest Ear of Corn. Learn all about this roadside attraction in the next section.
