Goodyear unveiled a new concept tire that could double as a propeller and help cars fly

The company has designed an airless tire, called the Goodyear Aero, which would double as a propeller. The Aero tires would have bladed spokes that act as a fan allowing the wheels to flip upward and help propel a car into the air.Goodyear's flying tire is currently just a conceptual design. Chris Helsel, Goodyear's chief technology officer, said the design is meant to spark discussion about transportation options for the future.

It would be tough for the wheels to satisfy the car's needs for breaking on the ground and withstand the high rotational speeds needed to lift the car into the air, Daniel Codd, a mechanical engineering professor at the University of San Diego, told CNN Business.Read MoreBut some parts of the Aero tire design are similar to technology that is already in cars today.

Pliase, do not thing that I am kidding. I cant deliver that information in FBI PA or NJ. I make them big stress when I put it on my page, they try to stop my internet.

Consequently the project to bring to market a full set of durable yet shockingly affordable tires has been cancelled.

WhenPigs can Fly! lol

The Jetsons

By these technologies the governments should think about air traffic jams

One small problem. When the tire was operating as a road wheel there will be a massive amount of wasted energy from them still behaving as fans, each ‘wheel’ trying to force themselves towards the center of the ‘car’...will the car/plane be coal powered?

Wakandan Vibranium?

The noise pollution would be unbearable w/ flying cars. No thanks.,

totally safe

How much did Goodyear pay you to promote these for them?

Uhh. I think they should make a tire that doesn't...get flat maybe?

What nonsense.

Finally someone at Goodyear tried Nintendo MarioKart8Deluxe :) Hint: there are more games with stunning ideas for innovations out there :)

Poor rendition. Resembles wings on a hippo.

Look a lot like a remix of the 3d printed wheels people have made 🤔

They could be a little more realistic.
