Most cars have four wheels, but also four doors, maybe eight if you want to count the trunk, hood, glove compartment, and console. Is a ball bearing a wheel? Is a gear? Is a butthole a door? Probably.

Hey stupid most cars have a spare tire somewhere
That's five wheels you moron
Six if you count the steering wheel

Aren't cell membranes also biological doors at the microscopic level permitting things to go in or out of cells

By that criteria then it seems like there are more doors than wheels in the world

I concur with this

If I can roll it, it's a wheel.
If I can't roll it, it's a bad wheel.

You ever see a garage door with a human-sized door built into it? Wheels within wheels, man.

Yeah but how many wheels are part of the opening mechanism of the garage door?

if you think about a door as just a hinge which another flat plane rotates around from one edge, all doors are basically paddle wheels

And it made one-eighth the difference.

Every molecule is round and moves and therefore is a wheel.

Everything in the universe is a wheel. Hell, we live on a giant rotating wheel that spins around itself while it rolls in circles around a larger wheel.

Also the letter O is a wheel and there's more instances of the letter O in the world than there are doors.

Not enough seriousposts ITT IMO. :argh:

It's clearly doors. Millions of poorer people round the world live in homes with doors, but don't own a car. And children and many old people worldwide also don't own cars but a lot live in homes with doors.

poo poo, I just realised that all cars have car doors, usually four each. I don't have time to adjust my theory, I'll leave that to another ~~sperg~~ smart goon. :spergin:

Van Morrison's first band was known as the Wheels and had 6 members.

Meanwhile the Doors only had 4 members.

There were more Wheels than Doors.

I saw a tiktok about this two days ago and the guy's main argument was toy cars like hot wheels have four wheels and no functional doors and there are millions of those. No idea why i saw that video and now you're asking about it too.

Fundamentally wheels can be doors and doors wheels. The answer is a tie (cravat), because a lemon has no legs.

Those millions of poorer people have plenty of bikes, scooters, carts, and wheelbarrows. Cars definitely aren't the main source of wheels worldwide

Every car window is a door within a door. The ignoble car itself, being a precipice that takes you from one place to another once entered, is also a kind of a door!

Unless you're counting stuff like gears or other stuff with cogs as wheels there are easily more doors than wheels in the world.

Joints that allow full rotation are wheels

Within each car door there are at least two wheels responsible for rolling the window up and down.
