They look real weird LOL

Obviously with a side wall no-one would know. Potentially a great idea, just takes away hassle of tyre pressures.

Not the first time they have been looked at though, and for various reasons other ideas all been scrapped. So this would suggest to me it's not a great idea. Who knows though? These might have new processes that make it work.

They appear to be a non std size?
The audi is running much smaller wheels than normal...

Thoses tyres were made some years back, something like four years back or so!

In term of handling, I did read in this time thing were pretty fine but the main issue was noise; with all those 'blades", a lot of noise was created, faster you go, noisier it comes. And that a big matter as now the main thing producing noise you can hear is due to tyre, exactly air compression in the groove.
