Uhhh...NO. Those are even lamer than those clear wheels that were posted on here a while back. What is the advantage of these tires besides the obvious "airless" design? They might sell if somebody put sidewalls on those things, and make them to fit or be used with a larger rim/lower profile tire setup. Still...not a fan.

[RockyF150]

ok? so sidewall or no sidewall whats that make a difference in the tire itself. that only means they'll look the same as other tires. Big deal...lol. Not like they're going to make them for my size wheels anyhow.

Think it'd be cool if they made a SS Bogger type of design and put a flexible non-punctureable sidewall on it. Be nice to go muddin' an not have to worry about blowing a tire.

[RockyF150]

in mudding they'd have to have a sidewall to keep from clogging up the inside...who needs to air down their tires....not these.

Yea that's why I said "flexible non-punctureable sidewall"

Imagine the rotating mass once these things got filled with mud, not to mention the fact of being off balance haha
May do a good job for rock climbers too.

not only all that but imagine trying to clean those bad boys out

Haha cause theyre young cheerleaders.

[RockyF150]

Thats one thing going against them in the car washing department....and why is it when they see a really nice car the try harder to get them to pull in. lol...I just pull in for the smiles and waves.

Those would be perfect for the guy who has a psycho ex-girlfriend and is tired of replacing slashed tires!!! :lol: The only downside is she would probably go for the paint if she can't flatten the tires??? :?

[RockyF150]

Know from experience??? lol :shock:

[chaoseg6]

i wonder how those would do under extreme cornering...

[RockyF150]

I kinda wondered that myself. I would like to see it in a video.
