ugly

 

i dont have sound here at schoo, but is that like a bike wheel sorta thing for a car

 

Yes, but its like plastics and rubber and crap.....and there's no air so its not so much like a bike wheel thing as it is like a plastic/rubber chariot wheel thing =P

 

wtf was that 4 wheel bike thingy

 

so how the market go for performance driving?

 

Whether it works or not, that's a dead product -- no one is going to let something that ugly near their car, whether it works or not.

The wheelchair and the Centaur are inventions of Dean Kamen, the man who designed the Segway.

That tire is booty. Maybe if they built a sidewall around it so it looked like a normal tire. It would be kind of fun to take it to the car was and be like, Dont forget to Armorall the side walls now!

 

I would get it just so people could be like -

Excuse me sir but your tire is...ummmm, your thi..uhhhhh, thats a little..eeehhhhh....what the hell sir?! lol

wtf?? can you imagine Petter Solberg's car with them tires on???? lol

 

Thats pretty cool, but yeah put a sidewall on.

 

It's not that ugly...plus, it'll turn into a status symbol to not have sidewalls. Especially if they really work better like Michelin says. Better handling and better comfort? Count me in...besides, I think STi wings and blue LEDs are ugly...hahaha

 

I like them without a sidewall - once they start designing them with visual asthetics in mind they will look cooler than tires.

 

I agree that they look ugly, but there is alot of potential there... I imagine that will become a new *bling* thing soon.

And really all you need to do is cover up the sidewall and the see through look is removed.
