No air! And much less petroleum in their manufacture. Check these out.
not sure if it is a repost or not…but i’ve never seen it
its the tweel, saw it two years ago at the detroit autoshow
Its like Nike Shox for your wheels.
Also, I think they could still close the side wall and just put small holes in the tire to relieve pressure. They would look a lot better.
wow…
sweet…
fucking sick!:jawdrop:
Might be a problem in the snow…
ugly as fawk…but cool i guess
that aint right…
somehow i jsut have a hard time seeing that holding up well under extreme cornorering. its a sweet concept though.
Why? Thier cross section is probably 20 times thicker than a conventional tire and depending on their construction, creating what was once “sidewall” stiffness would be unlimited.
I am just wondering what a truck driver knows about “extreme cornering”…
Guess that takes care of the whole slashing tires shit
what the fuck am i supposed to do with all this tire shine!
but You cant see how 300#s affects a vehicle???
I’d imagine that would be quite a bit more stable than your average car tire. Reposted several times. But I want to see it in action.
rofl
Sweet but just doesnt look right…what are all the dub and beyond guys gonna do? lol
You’re also saving a shit load of weight from the air thats no longer needed… 15 pound wheel+tire combos? That would be awesome.
:word:
unsprung weight reduction like whoa
im pretty sure the spokes weigh more than air.
no side wall, lighter rim/wheel, and no compressed air (compressed air has weight)
seems like a cool concept to me.
Probably not a good idea to make a snow variation of these unless the enclose them with a slim piece of rubber on each side.
