What do you think of Goodyear using sheer rubber to make tires with so you will be able to see how much air is in your tires?

    Maybe if they made the air various colors, like maybe pink air or red metallic air or rainbow colored air for the gay community.

    Yes, right - that would be a good idea.

    I am pretty sure that air is invisible.

    Could use smokey air or smoggy air from Los Angeles.

    Doesn't matter.  It won't show how low.  The feel of the outside tire is more telling.  Black tire with some give?  It is low on air.  You cannot see that with smoggy air in any space.   The air will fill up the entire space, dirty or not.   You cannot see empty air and clean air like there is some demarcation.    What do you think that  it is like water?   Its invisible.  Please don't argue.  You are dead wrong.

    Nah, with colored air we could tell JUST by looking at it.

    Don't listen to sharon. She doesn't believe in Santa either.  This post was edited by ProblemCh1ld at December 20, 2016 1:35 AM MST

    Hey great idea. We could clean up LA in no time. But then we would have a smog problem when tires went flat. Oh well. It was the thought that counts. Lol

  • PRO - No more parking tickets. Just tell the officer you aren't parked on the street.
    CON - It would make it a little harder to tell when the tires needed replacing because the tread was worn.

    No tickets?  You mean because you'd be parked on top of the air?  Did I catch your line of thinking?  Lmao

    I don't think they've worked all the bugs out yet. With any luck, the days of tread will be over. Wouldn't that be a dream come true. ;)

  • Well, it would look like you're parked in mid-air.
    You can buy tires with no tread now, but they're illegal, and usually a bad choice, on the street.
