GamithUK Posted December 22, 2012 Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 May you live in interesting times... The magnetic ones - who do the brakes work? The three-in-ones - how do they keep from warping into their neighbours The multi-foot ones - goodbye to punctures, but what's the grip like? The profile changing ones - what happens when you need to suddenly brake when you're in fuel efficiency mode? I can't see these in reality, but it's good that people are thinking of alternatives until we all have hover-cars. ttfn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phipck Posted December 22, 2012 Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 i guess concept videos keep the average consumer excited for fouture prospects, even if the concept will never come to reality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have to agree, I can't see these happening, what would they be like on real roads! They are very interesting concepts though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freaky Roadster Posted December 23, 2012 Report Share Posted December 23, 2012 Looks cool but... .... wont the 3 in 1's have less surface contact and hence less grip??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted December 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 24, 2012 The actual contact patch of a 225mm width tyre is only around 90mm surprisingly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parthiban Posted December 27, 2012 Report Share Posted December 27, 2012 Wasting time on this stuff probably explains why Hankook doesn't make very good tyres Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
