What your thoughts on the new tire by goodyear

interesting but i don't see any car even trying to adopt this for at least 10 years

Once they slap them into sports/race cars i expect many lap times and 0-60 to be broken with the supposed extra traction.

Interesting, but I would like to see more about how the tires are connected to the car and braking. The video only mentions magnetic levitation once. Also I don't think I'm a fan of the look with wider bodied cars and no wheels.

my guess is breaking will be the vehicle dropping it weight on the tire
Controls might be a joy stick as i dont believe a steering wheel would give adaquit feedback.
