So I was reading an email that I got earlier from my uncle about the new Michelin tires... Thought they were pretty interesting and figured I would share.
Thoughts or comments?
I think they are pretty cool!

Interesting but i would think they would wear out quicker

I think they look terrible. They should try to come up with some flexible sidewall so they don't look like you're rolling on 10 speed wheels.

It looks like there is enough "side wall flex" but its the hole tread width that would move up and down without deforming. No more flat tires and the tire should run cooler, the big thing would be changing the stiffness of the tire itself does not look possible, like how we change tire pressure now.

That's probably just the "skeleton" of their newest run flats.
