Never get a flat tire again with these bad boys

Neverthless, it was a tough sell at time to get people to use air when there was such a risk of a flat, but I'm sure the desire to drive faster helped move things along. Looks like we are now going between the two extremes. I see it is being used on construction equipment.

They have prototypes for bikes, cars (audi in the video),and contruction equipment which I like because I'm sure they are lighter than foam filled, won't go flat on the job site, and looks like it rides smoother than solid tires.
Just a little worried about grip and stability with a heavy load.

True, but Michelins are one of the better tires on the market.
You know you get what you pay for as with anything you buy.
I opt to go w/ Continentals for the mighty Lex, smooth ride, excellent performance, and wear evenly.
Price is reasonsable for my size.
