Elastic Tire

| View Cart ⇗ | Info

A tire is a ring shaped covering that fits around a wheel to protect it and enable better vehicle performance by providing a flexible cushion that absorbs shock while keeping the wheel in close contact with the ground. The fundamental materials of modern tires are rubber and fabric along with other compound chemicals. The tread provides traction while the body ensures support.
