Revolutionaire Michelin band

[Cloaca]

Fijn als je door de modder rijdt...... onbalans van hier tot Tokio......

dit verhaal is al meer dan 5 jaar oud en zal nooit een commercieel succes worden.
één reden werd reeds aangehaald door cloaca, anderzijds hebben de banden lateraal niet dezelfde eigenschappen als gewone banden.
dit concept zal, net zoals run flat banden, een stille dood sterven.

dit concept zal, net zoals run flat banden, een stille dood sterven.

Volgens mij is het (sinds het nieuwsbericht in 2005) al lang gestorven..

[Jeroen C3.0]

Inderdaad, oud nieuws, ook te zien aan het oude type audi a4.

Run flat daareentegen is al redelijk gemeengoed op nieuwe auto''s, denk niet dat die nog verdwijnen.

[wolf]

Fok is voor pubers, gast.

[Ewout]

Het ziet er trouwens niet uit van de zijkant

[Roel 964 C2]

Het is nu toch 30 augustus en niet 30 maart?

[Ivo 3.6]

Nee hoor het is 30 maart vandaag!! (even verwarring zaaien)

The all new airless tire from Michelin recently came out into the publics eye early this year, 2005. Although it appears to be a pretty good idea and concept, they probably will not be available to the general public soon. I have looked at the idea and think it is cool, although I don't know what to think of the center rim selection that you haven't got a choice with. I'm sure that the police will probably not like the idea because the spike strips will definitely be ineffective with a set of these on your ride. The ride and handling seem to be very effective

Airless Tyres from Michelin The Tweel offers a number of benefits beyond being impervious to nails in the road. The tread will last two to three times as long as current radial tires, Michelin says, and when it does wear thin, it can be retreaded. The tire maker has high expectations for the Tweel. The concept of a single-piece tire and wheel assembly is one that the company expects to spread to passenger cars and construction equipment and aircraft. The Tweel is in its infancy - "version 1.0," Thompson said, and only one set of car Tweels exists. A test drive in a Tweel-equipped Audi A4 sedan on roads around Michelin's research center proved to be far less exotic than the construction method or appearance would suggest. The prototype Tweels are noisy, as Thompson warned they would be, because the spokes vibrate.
