Air-Free Concept tyres from Bridgestone

Air-Free Concept tyres from Bridgestone

We all know that there is this thing called run-flat tyres, where they are a standard issue feature on expensive vehicles such as BMWs, but replacing them can be quite a pain on your wallet. Then again, it should not matter – after all, if you are rich enough to afford such a pricey marque, what is a little bit more money when it comes to its maintenance. Bridgestone's latest Air-Free concept is a new kind of tyre technology what will rely on a thermoplastic resin that will replace air as it's support structure. It makes sense then, that without any air in such tyres, punctures will end up being a thing of the past.
