Just what I need, more crevices to clean out No thanks! I can image old soda cans, cardboard box pieces, rug pieces and just about anything else on the road getting caught in those slots. What if they fill up with snow? I'll pass

Cool technology if you actually read the articles...

retreading->cheap replacement treads
more control of lateral give vs horizontal give-> better handling

all kinds of pluses!! It's early but a serious solution to getting better handling and traction, both things I wnat on my vette... now if they could just make it pretty..

Damn! There goes one of my favorite practical jokes. Now it's going to take a propane torch to accomplish what I used to be able to do with a toothpick in the valve stem.

What would happen to out tire pressure monitoring system.
Looks like a river paddlewheeler.
