Thats frickin awesome!!! The wheels look like they are 30" and the tires are just rubber bands with grooves cut in them! I would guess pretty much indestructible!!

That's really pretty cool. This part is great too:

"Costs per tire are expected to be the same or less than current units"

Can't go wrong with that!

Are the honeycombs going to fill up with rocks and dirt? Seems like they will be hard to clean up (or out) after a trip in the woods...
