I hear that, but I have never heard of them. I would think police would hate these things, spike strips and attempts to shoot out the tire would be useless.

Re: New generation of wheels?

You gotta figure that they would also have a sidewall, and even air in them. IF they sold them as is the tire would collapse every time you accellerated from a stop.
