Bridgestone Airless Tires

This week at the Tokyo Motor show Bridestone unveiled their latest Airless tire.  As you can see this re-definition of the tire is getting closer and closer to being a usable consumer product. The tires have a specially designed spiral spoke around the inside of the tire, which were designed to support the load negating the use of air.

The Bridgestone airless tires are constructed from a resin plastic material combined with the rubber tread.  The best part about these tires is that the materials are all Eco-friendly as they are recyclable. For additional information on the Bridestone Airless tires head over to the Bridgestone website for more details. (will need Google translate)
