That's pretty cool. They don't look cheap though. Those and treads = greatness. How'd you come across this?

I'm "fairly" certain that they come with sidewalls. This is just a demo of how well they do on rocks, etc. Seen something very similar a few years back but have never heard of them making it to market.

Somewhat the same as the run flats a few cars come with but much more sidewall on these.

I think those look goofy appearance wise but would be awesome for off roading.

They were originally for High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle or HMMWV (HUMVEE) the purpose is so that they won't get a flat from a bullet. Not meant for street driving mainly off road.

Its call the Tweel, Michelin Tweel.

There is a problem with it at high speed, so correct mainly for a utility vehicle/machinery or off road.
