...team was stopped for a road inspection on its way to present the Gastrovac at a conference in San Sebastián, they spent two hours convincing the Civil Guard that the contraption in the trunk was intended for cooking vegetables, and not, say, blowing up train stations.

That has become an opportunity for a growing group of big-wheel brokers. The rubber is meeting the road at up to $60,000 apiece. "The shortage is enabling anyone with something black and round with a hole in the middle to supply it at an exorbitant price," says Prabhu. "People have even told us to put our tires on eBay."
