I think everyone will have such a question, why are all car tires now basically used pneumatic tires, how good is it to replace them with solid tires, without having to inflate them without worrying about punctures, reducing safety threats.

In fact, solid tires have already come out, but except for some very few civilian vehicles that use solid tires, they are basically only used on some special vehicles. So why is this?

Reason 1: The cost is too expensive. This reason is why only a few vehicles are used. Special vehicles have their special needs. Second, civilian vehicles with solid tires are generally expensive models, and generally only those vehicles can afford it. .

Reason 2: The tires are too bulky and the shock absorption effect is poor. Since it is a solid tire, it will be much heavier than a hollow tire, which will affect the speed of the vehicle and increase fuel consumption.

Reason 3: The cost of car companies, because solid tires have higher requirements for wheels. If solid tires need to be installed, then car companies need to redesign models and wheels, but for car companies that are modularly produced, they need to do so. At this point, the cost is huge, and there are few car companies to do it.

Reason 4: Solid tire manufacturers seem to be safe, but in fact they are unsafe (standing wave phenomenon). This is also the most important reason. Since solid tires do not have the protection of internal air, they are more likely to cause the standing wave phenomenon of car tires. For this standing wave phenomenon, in simple terms, it will cause the external rubber of the tire to fall off or even deform the tire. . Although this phenomenon can also occur with hollow tires, the appearance of solid tires is more obvious and fast, and it becomes very dangerous when the car is driving at high speed.
