You might find it hard to miss these unusual wheel accessories, but then they aren't made to be missed.

Bemused passengers filmed the hilarious moment they spotted a car driving on the motorway with foot-and-a-half long protruding spinners on the wheels.

The video shows a Cadillac driving on the busy motorway in Houston, Texas with the unusually long wheel ornaments on all four of its tires.

The passenger, who was filming the funny motorway sighting, can be heard laughing, 'What the f***?', he says.

'Only in Houston, Texas'.

The distinctive wheel rims are commonly called 'swangas' and are status symbols for some in the Houston area.

The wheels were originally created for 1983 and '84 Cadillacs but went out of production for years until a California company called Texan Wire Wheel started making them again.

They are regularly used in music videos and prove to be quite the commodity in Texas with regular reports of carjackings for the protruding wheel ornaments.
