Honeycomb Tyres

<< < (2/2)

carbore:
I think the trick would be to put one inside a normal pneumatic so that it was pneumatic most of the time but the cell structure would support it in the event of a "flat". That would help eliminate clag and provide better day-to-day ride.

If thats no good then they would make interesting strawberry planters.

wormster:
I've often wondered if it would be worth filling your tiers with the expanding builders foam stuff, to create a mousse effect wheel.

Boddle:
 Interesting concept, but how would you change tyre pressure for different conditions.  I would assume that if they developed them for use on Public vehicle they would cover the sides (side walls of the tyre) of the honey coombe it would be a real problem if the honey coomb filled will the thick mud we had at Bramcote for both the tyre flexability and balance.

V8MoneyPit:
Nothing in this world is new though. This reminds me a little of the Lunar Rover steel wire wheels.

Range Rover Blues:
They claim it's unique, but they aren't the onl copany working on this sort of thing.

What I whantto know is, how do I let down the pressure to drive over sand?
