Luigi's Flying Tires was an amusement ride in Cars Land at Disney California Adventure, at the Disneyland Resort in Anaheim, California. Guests rode on tire-shaped bumper car vehicles that floated on a cushion of air, similar to an air hockey game but also very much like a hovercraft. The ride's concept was based on Disneyland's Flying Saucers attraction from the 1960s. The attraction closed on February 17, 2015. It was replaced by Luigi's Rollickin' Roadsters.
