81CJH Member 204 Member For: 19y 8m 24d Gender: Male Location: Brisvegas Posted 17/05/06 08:54 PM Share Posted 17/05/06 08:54 PM What a sham.Even if they get the technology sorted (which sounds like a long way off), they're never going to sell it. Do you honestly think ol' mate is gonna bin his "pimpin" 20's in favour of that?! I think not.Only if they could make it as a nice low profile tyre so you could still use conventional rims would people even consider buying it.I mean if we were that concerned about getting greener we'd be spending all our time and effort developing alternative power sources to our ozone burning, asthma inducing fossil fuels.We could just, like, put batteries in a car or something. ...we could even still keep the yanks onside by leaving a petrol engine in there as well! We could call it a HYBRID!!!!Man I bet something like that would REALLY catch on!
