New tire design

Radical new tire design by Michelin. The next generation of tires.
They had a pair at the Philadelphia car show.
These tires are airless and are scheduled to be out on the market very soon.
The bad news for law enforcement is that spike strips will not work on these tires.
This is what great R&D will do, and just think of the impact on existing technology:
a... no more air valves
a... no more air compressors at gas stations
a... no more repair kits
SCAN DOWN & SEE.
These are actual pictures taken in the South Carolina plant of Michelin. It will be awhile before they are available to the automotive industry.

Update: I received a different version of this e-mail from JPAC, which contained a different image as well as some more text. I have incorporated those changes to the original post.

They had a "pair" at the car show?

Wouldn't they work better if you had all four?

yeah but they had better cover the side walls... other wise dirt/snow/anything will get caught in there and youll be in for a very rough ride, plus no more low profile tires... it looks like your rim will have to only be 13 inches as well
