They've been in use for years in agricultural applications.

tractors, trailers, even golf carts.

That's an odd looking rim too. I bet those ride just awesome.

Edit: nm, I looked at the pics again. That's odd.

those tires are awsome, but they're probably $300 a tire.

[linefire]

they are closer to $200 a tire but only have a speed rating of under 100... the whole idea is puncture proof and smoothness of ride... they also gaurantee the mileage you will get out of them based on the climate of purchased area...

I bet they are light too. Imagine getting em packed full of snow in the winter, they would be so off balance. Don't look like they would be too good for hard accel either.

IDK, if they hold together, the squishiness might make for a larger surface area & less slip?

don't really know - I'm making it up as I go. lol

I bet production models will have a sidewall though.

i heard about those tires a while ago, odd looking tire but really cool concept. if they could make those tires high performance they might have something there. michelin is a good tire company so it'll be pretty good in my opinion.

I bet they don't perform nearly as well as they handle.

[ExHempKnight]

arent they calling it a Tweel or something ghey like that?

[rusted sl2]
