Michellin evolves the car tire, and removes self advertising area on the side wall (where will they display the brand name now?).

From the inventors of radial tires!

http://www.metacafe.com/watch/51120/airless_wheel_video/ for the video these stills originated from

The bad news for law enforcement is that spike strips will not work on these tires.

This is what great R&D will do, and 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
