True zero pressure tires?
 
Hey everyone, what's your take on these? I feel this will be a fantastic fit for all Corvette's, especially those designed to ride on run flats. I would buy a set if they mimicked a strong traditional tire.

Initially that was my gut reaction but in order for them to market this product and have it succeed after a substantial investment in research, they gotta perform better than run flats.

Yeah those will work real well in winter with ice and snow packed into all those openings. Plus how to you keep them balanced with "stuff" getting into those openings? Maybe if it has some type of side wall covering...
