    Radical new tire design by Michelin. The next generation of tires.

    They had a pair at the Philadelphia car show.


    These tires are airless and are scheduled to be out on the market very soon.

    The bad news for law enforcement is that spike strips will not work on these tires.

    This is what great R&D will do, and just think of the impact on existing technology:

    a. no more air valves
    b. no more air compressors at gas stations
    c. no more repair kits

    SCAN DOWN & SEE.

    These are actual pictures taken in the South Carolina plant of Michelin. It will be a while before they are available to the automotive industry.

    The no side wall is just to show the tech behind the design.

    That is not how they would be produced.

    The mother of all hoax's? Soo you're saying Russia and China were in on it as well? That means all the wars in the world are a hoax as well?

    Could be possible, if Alonso can be champion anything is possible. :p
