Saw this piece on yahoonews. The article mention's DAD as the inspiration, but I'm sure that I am not the only one who thought of TLD first.

The Aston Martin in The Living Daylights had spiked tires?

Yes it did, used when Bond is driving on the iced over lake.

This is a very cool find indeed.

Yep, the winterised Aston Martin V8 had spiked tyres. Nice find with the article.
