PUR tires are coming!

Off Topic Automotive News and Motorsports too:
#1

On www.sema.org was an interesting paper on the fact that very soon tires will be made from Polyurethane compounds instead of rubber plant and man made syenstic rubber.

It will take much less energy to make this PUR tires, they will be perfect round and will not need any weigh weights to balance the wheel and tire out, it takes only 10 minutes to make 1 vs. 30+ for the old style of making tires.

They will have all the same sizes, wear, grip, speed rating as the tires ws have now too.

But I beat anything that they will also be coming out with color tires too! Or ones that the thread will start to show red to tell the owner the tires are near worn out (but also the ploice too…)!

Also, to start up a company to make these tires 1/10 of the regural tire factory. If the Regural tire factory would cost 100 million to get started, the new process would only be 10 million!

Anyone have stock in a PUR company???

I believe Polysar Canada does PUR, any of the big oil companies will do, the raw materials are derived from oil.

I hope this works, but I’m never going to buy another HP :mad: product as their software product support is worst than…

…well, it didn’t work. I’ll have to try something else to upload the information of these PUR tires…

I also see that Kumho tires makes tires that emit Color Smoke from them and now scented smoke! Something about for Drifters…but how can Drifter’s or HOBO’s afford new tires???:o
