Goodyear Says Testing of Airless Tire Progressing
Airless tires are coming, that much is certain. Several manufacturers have been showing their prototypes for a few years now, and more than one is already being tested. Since 2013, there has even been one in use on an all-terrain vehicle sold by Polaris.
The tire giant explained that its prototypes have been tested over 75,000 miles at speeds of up to 160 km/h, all in a variety of temperatures, from blistering heat to extreme cold. Goodyear says it’s aiming to get U.S. Department of Transportation approval for its airless tires, though it warns they won’t be ready for use on public roads for a few years yet.
