    Now, that's what I want - a set of tweels for my Jeep!!

    Ever heard of a Michelin Tweel? (It's tire and wheel combined)







    Okay, ha ha! Now that I got everyone wanting a set of tweels, I have to burst your bubbles. They're not for the general public. They can't handle high speeds, and are more suited for heavy equipment or the military. Read this: http://www.hoax-slayer.com/see-through-tyres.shtml

    i remember seeing them when they first came out around 7-8 years ago. Interesting concept to say the least, but they'd kill the "wheel" customization market

    I was going to say I dunno how they'd fair at high speeds. But I was also curious about how they'd handle sharp turns, and complete abrupt stops.
