What does a grilled food has to do with a Tyre? food is to a plate and a tyre is to a road…. where’s the connection? I do understand a visual metaphor but this one is totally illogical

HAH! Very creative. :D
@ Mandy…
Drive around Kuwait roads at 12pm and tell me if your tires won’t get grilled.

such a disgusting ad ! there is no link what so ever between grilled food and tires. i never saw a tire melt down if thats the comparison, it would’ve been better if they compared it to tires getting burst from the sun heat. very poor ad. as mandy said, no logic at all in this.

Probably the creative director was craving for some grilled meat at that time when he was self-brainstorming.. EWW.

come on man, didn’t you notice that there is some red pepper with the tires,
may be the creative Team behind this AD have eaten their grilled YOKOHAMA meal and now telling everybody to try it.
BUT THE QUSTION IS:…..?
- HOW MANY TIMES DID THEY ORDER IT?
- DID THEY FIND IT DELICIOUS ….. HMMM …… SURE THEY FOUND IT DELICIOUS BECAUSE THEY ARE TELLING US TO TRY IT.

And someone at Al Sayer approved this?! they must have been drunk on your arak ya khayye peter. You fail to miss the fundamentals of design. Where is the balance in this artwork? How on earth was the client convinced to associate their product in such a manner or to take this direction. Who did this anyway?

Jay… don’t you think it’s too late to whine about this one? Look at the date on the ad, where’ve you been? LOL

Great ad …. an ad should not always be that direct … sometimes its nice to have a trigger

This is not direct to you? It’s selling tires and there are tires all over the darned thing. Hard sell as hard sell does, forrest.

GAWD………This agency needs new ppl!

so ya so
A very bad idea and poorly executed too. It has nether a value nor selling proposition I think the CD should not allow this even if the cline approved it. S&S should not get to this point they have a back bone and a very strong one too
