Very clear and unmistakeable idea. Nice.
The visual compliments the idea in a very good way.
Simple and effective for any reader.
"Collecting points for what!?"
idea is really cool .. respect for that ..
But If i don't read the title "stolen" i don't understand it.
So I guess we're all going to excuse the stupid logic behind this idea. Oh well.
Loving the additional credits!
really nice photoshop and idea... good work

One of those rare ads that makes you wonder why no one did it before. Absolutely fabulous idea, and perfect photography.
Very nice! Congrats to all involved!
This is good advertising! You know exactly what they're trying to convey at first glance.
This is an awesome idea. Great photography and post processing.
stupid ad, it doesn’t show the product - but this could greatly work as part of tvc but not press
haha
Y&R ROCKS!

Is the idea really "these tires are so good people stole it"? If so, color me utterly unimpressed.
If not, anyone care to enlighten me?
Simple. Cool.

Nice one Mark...Sweet idea and executed real real nice...
I like the photography and cool idea
Copywriter? Where's your job.
Are you sure u work in advertising ?
The copywriter is not only the one who writes a line, but he finds the concept with the AD.
Good first idea
Good First Idea
disagree, I'm a car owner myself, so, how the fcuk do you steal a tire without taking the disc off. Maybe It's nice idea, but then the next thing in ads will be flying rhinos.

coolio! ideawise it makes me go - "shit, i shoulda' thot of it myself"
they showed me a picture & i laughed
dignity has never been photographed
Agree with freakart. Like ricklongo says, needn't necessarily mean that the tyres were the better choice. The concept is dated.
~~this paranoid survived!~~
Very nice. Good work people.
Love the idea. Nicely done . Clear and you get the point immediately. As someone rightly said .something so simple and superb .surprisingly noone thought about it earlier.
cheers to Impact BBDO.
idea done by dunlop in 1999 in south africa !!!

Very nice. I'm jealous.
not the same idea...they have tken the whole wheel as well....This one is much cleaner. And art directed way way better....
Actually it works the other way around if we replace Dunlop logo by Nissan one, as for: No wheels can stand Nissan Z350 monster... right?
OK it's done well. Logically the copy should have shown the wheel rims strewn around the car. It's impossible to remove the tyres without removing the wheels from the car. It is only an idiot who would fit it back after stealing the tires Dunlop or no Dunlop.
RAM KATE
To those that say the rims should be on the floor, not on the car - why this works (for me) is it's a double-take ad. For a second we have to look twice as it's not what we expect, and having that rear wheel-well in darkness in a nice touch. Had the rims been on the floor, one might think the car was just having the rubber changed, and the blocks were make-shift. Visually we are so used to seeing empty wheel wells. Putting them BACK on the car really hits home their worth, and the absurdity/humour of the situation.
But hey - what do I know - I'm just a doctor.
Done...Done...Done... Sorry Guys.
Simple and nice but nothing great.
