Outdoor Power Equipment (Lawn Mowers, Snow Blowers, Chain Saws and more) Discussions

Has anyone seen these??

Pretty neat concept and will be a godsend to construction and agricultural users. No more down time due to flats.

Looks pretty radical on the car at speed......

I saw them one time on an auto show special or somewher like that.

I think they look great, but with that kind of "rim" they are not good for anything other than on road, as you guys noted, they will pack full of junk and become out of balance. With the space toward the perimiter though they may not do as much in snow, as lots of areas that also have potholes and stuff like that do, where something like this would be useful. I have heard no pricing, or availability on them but they look great, IMO...

I think they are leaving them open right now to show off the technology. The "invisible" tire is a dramatic visual.

In service the side will be sealed and look much like an ordinary tire.

ps. I have a feeling they are not much in the performance dept; lateral grip, sideloading, etc.
