Wonder if they will ever make mudders or all terrains?


Made in South Carolina
Made by Michelin
Spoke like connections to the inner part of the tire from the outside tread wrap. They are airless (obviously) and supposed to be on the market soon. No more air valves, air compressors at gas stations, repair kits, and flats.

 

Pretty slick, man. It's amazing this hasn't come out sooner. I'm not but fifteen minutes down the road from their plant. I used to golf with one of their engineers...I'll see if he knows if these will make it to MTs.


I'm trying to think of the plastic material they use inside the wheel that lets it rebound like that after pic 3. It seems this would eventually be worn/warped.

 

Yeah I think they already look rather odd but would really look different with a more rugged type of pattern.

I bet they're going to cost a pretty penny as well. Not really my stile but still looked kind of cool.

 

Don't quote me on this but I am pretty sure the sidewall is left open for demonstration purposes. It won't look like that when it's in production.

 

Sweet i wonder how well they work in cold weather or a few inches of snow

 

Very possible..........but it'd look kinda cool if it stayed that way

 

Old news, I posted on my ranger forum mid April of last year. Good find though.

That would be bad news for companies tire shine lines

 

Don't really check out the Ranger forums.....for obvious reasons


Also for cops. Think of the high speed car chases; no more spike strips to blow out their tires.
