He's at it again!

It needs to be full of air so that it can go down bumpy roads and kind of, shape to the terrain, a straight rubber tire wouldn't have that give so you'd feel every rock and pebble

mfw all replies so far

New military tires. not solid, but dont need air

hurr durr 100lb of tires would weigh too much on a 3000lb car durr...

No. Think about how much weight you add when another person gets into a car, and how much larger they are than a tire.

the brakes don't actually have to slow the car down, they slow the rotation of the tires. therefore, the more ******* the tires, the more force would be needed to slow them down. more force = bigger, more expensive brakes.

True, they only directly affect the tires. However, due to the tire's grip on the road, they actually have to slow the forward momentum of the car, as well as the angular momentum of the tires.

The forward (linear) momentum of the average (4000lb) car traveling at 60mph is around 50,000 (kg*m)/s.
The average angular momentum of a single tire (also at 60mph) is 67 (kg*m)/s. If you double, triple, even multiply it by 10, it's not going to make a difference.

They would be tremendously expensive, you'd feel every little bump, nook, and cranny in the road, they would be extremely heavy, and the rubber would wear out much quicker due to the friction.

What the **** is going on in that picture. She looks like 15-16 but I see a 10 on the plate

That would please me.

Nooooooo..... Run Flat tires come in two types.
1. Is a rim/tire package with a solid ring of rubber inside an air filled tire.
2. (The more common one) has thicker sidewalls that can hold up the weight of the vehicle which are used in many armored vehicles.

I will say there are tires "filled" with rubber, or solid rubber tires, but those are used on forklifts, Pallet Jacks, and such.

Runflats are also mostly on BMW's (ones with a thick side wall) Mounting runflats will make a man out of you.

I can agree with you there. did some myself and it took 3 beers!!

I didnt mean entirely filled, I actually could have sworn I used the word core, but apparently not. Thanks for being a dick about trying to correct me though. Much appreciated

I wish so hard.

There were armed officers stationed at my High School after 9/11. This is Deputy Scott Dyke who was the officer at the time, I'm pretty sure he was in some sort of money scandal recently lol.

My highschool now has them, after some kid got a bullet in his head while trying to put a bullet in someone else's head.
Irony.

Some schools in the USA have them, they are often called "School Resource Officers" so that parents don't know that they have armed police.

Usually those schools actually put the money in their budgets to have them, and justify them due to crime, drugs, or other illegal activities being plentiful at the schools.

Ours had a large drug issue, and that was back in the late 90's and we still have them now.

Ironic they justify officers because of crime or drugs in a school, but not as a proactive measure to protect students... because that's crazy right?

My highschool had them. All 4 years I was there, there were several cops there

i have had a cop at my high school all 3 years and ive had one for a dare program in middle school

Why would you comment that?

huehuehuehuehuehue

Wahahahahahahaha~!
