Re: Michelin's Airless tires - cool

Maybe so, but the rubber they use, wears down much faster than let's say Good Year. That's why they suck.

Re: Michelin's Airless tires - cool

what is the virtue of having an airless tire other than not having to check tire pressure, or no more flat tires? i'd assume there would be far more road noise...
