This 37 - column inch tire can take the explosion of an IED along with a few rounds of predominant fire and still cart an armored Humvee out of a battle at 50 miles per hour . Completely airless and put up by a honeycomb - inspire serial of hexagons , the tire ’s body structure can distribute weight unit loads evenly while taunting the enemy that it does n’t even need a hubcap ( unlikeMichelin ’s Tweel ) . The tires are expected to teach the military machine by 2011 when they ’re promised to carry comparable costs to current modeling . [ CNET ]
