I've seen one on TV. I think the tires are packed with dirt and part of the house is underground. The walls are covered up so you don't see any tires.
Must be quiet inside, I wouldn't mind one here to block out the noise from my neighbors.

It says the walls are 3 ft. thick with 18 in. of insulation in the ceilings.
Sounds pretty nice to me as long as it's dry and looks somewhat normal inside.

#13, #15, and #21 are all insults which prove that Braindead Wendy is is a mean nasty bully and a thug. It is outrages that she is not been banned five years ago. Peace to all of you.
