In 60 or 61 the Pure Oil Research Center was testing butyl tires.  A gimmick 
they used to drum up interest was, they had a ball of rubber and a ball of 
butyl.  You'd drop the rubber ball on the floor and it would bounce as expected.  
When you dropped the butyl ball it only bounced an inch or so.

I put a pair on the back of my Ford.  They pretty much solved the bad 
traction problem it had, but they wore out real fast and made a lot of noise, like 
driving on a freshly tarred road.  I lent the tires to a friend with a 58 Ford 
to go racing with on Sundays when I wasn't going to the strip. They helped him, 
too, but Pure Oil dropped the program pretty fast.
