New Tires Coming..,

They have been testing them for several years now. Resilient Tech was developing them for the military application.



Amazing new tires.....Michelin Tires. Kind of SCARY looking. Look for them in August.
These tires are made in South Carolina, USA



SEE THROUGH TIRES

Radical new tire design by Michelin.
The next generation of tires.
They had a pair at the Philadelphia car show.



Yes, those are 'spoke' like connections to the inner part of the tire from the outside tread 'wrap!' The next picture shows how odd it looks in motion.



Makes you wonder how the ride feels, doesn't it?



These tires are airless and are scheduled to be out on the market very soon.
The bad news for law enforcement is that spike strips will not work on these.
Just think of the impact on existing technology:
A. no more air valves.
B. no more air compressors at gas stations.
C. no more repair kits.
D. no more flats.

These are actual pictures taken at the South Carolina plant of Michelin.

Depth of Speed captures the beautiful side of a Volkswagen Bus

We're quickly becoming big fans of Josh Clason and his Depth of Speed video series. We first saw his work when his lenses trained on the Japanese iron of JDM Legends. Clason then delved into the world of pinstriping, and from there he switched to German steel in a shot about the BMW 2002.

Now, he's sticking with Germany but trading the roundel for VW. More specifically, Clason caught up with Volkswagen enthusiast Craig Johnson to capture the beauty of his T1 Transporter.

Volkswagen Up!

Don't forget to include the exclamation point whenever you mention the Up! The concept was first displayed at the 2007 Frankfurt Motor Show, and this year we get to see the production model. Built to compete in a crowded European entry-level hatchback market, the Up! is slated to get between 54.6 and 56 mpg, depending on the engine chosen. No word yet on whether VW plans on bringing the Up! to the U.S.; with the engines rated at between 59 and 74 horsepower, we'd be doubtful, except that save for a 68-horsepower natural gas option, the engines are powered by standard gasoline.
