See-Through Tires???

does it have any effect on the ride comfort? would it still be as smooth as normal? or would it feel like you were in Fred flintstone's rock solid wheeled car?

same if not smoother then a normal tire. It seems to flex more, so might absorb more road shock. Just needs a sidewall, that tire in the corners just has no rigiidy

It uses a lot less rubber than a usual tire, and the rubber outside is replaceable when it does wear out. And with the fact that there's no solid way of recycling tires (except grounding them up or using them for tire swings), there will be fewer tires around to take up space in garbage dumps. This is a GREAT advancement in technology. If it's not used in this specific design, at the very least it will be a basis for future advancement for something even better. Screw the "it's so ugly" bullshit, it's not ment to be a bling bling wheel, it's ment to be functional.

it's just not baller enough lol
